Cotton

helping to save the environment as well

We were proud to introduce the UK's first Fairtrade supermarket shopping bag.

Made from naturally degradable Fairtrade cotton, the bag is home compostable and less damaging to the environment than traditional plastic bags.

We expect this will eventually replace the 3.5 million plastic Bags for Life we currently sell each year. 
 
As well as being less harmful to the environment, the Fairtrade cotton bags guarantee a fair price and a better deal for disadvantaged Indian cotton growers. The production of the bag has created over 1,000 new jobs in India, and for every one sold a donation is made to children's charity, The Wings of Hope.

We also stock Fairtrade cotton socks for men, and Fairtrade cotton cleaning cloths.
