Tierra Verde Long Handle Net Bag - Lime 1 pc

Product detailed description

The "síťovka" is a brilliant Czech invention, first manufactured in the 1920s in Žďár nad Sázavou by Vavřín Krčil. It is lightweight, carries a lot, and lasts a long time—an ideal replacement for single-use plastic bags that often don't even survive the trip home from the store. Our pieces are made from organically grown organic cotton. Distinguishing features: approximately 40 x 40 cm, 90 g, a capacity of up to 10 kg, a fresh green color, and a long handle :-) WHY ORGANIC COTTON? Conventional cotton cultivation and the manufacturing of cotton garments negatively impact the environment as well as the farmers and workers who depend on the textile industry for their livelihoods. Cotton fields occupy less than 3% of cultivated land worldwide but consume about 25% of all insecticides and 10% of all herbicides. Chemical substances, which are banned in food production, are heavily used in cotton farming. Cotton is one of the most genetically modified plants, primarily to withstand above-average doses of chemicals. Producing one t-shirt and one pair of jeans consumes about half a kilogram of pesticides and synthetic fertilizers. The use of toxic chemicals, which cause poisoning among agricultural workers and damage the environment, and genetically modified organisms are prohibited in the cultivation and production of organic cotton. Certified farms strive to build a biologically diverse agricultural system and maintain soil fertility naturally. Unlike conventionally grown cotton, organic cotton does not cause allergic reactions. Therefore, it is suitable for children, allergy sufferers, eczema patients, and people with sensitive skin. CERTIFICATION Our organic cotton products meet the high standards of the international organization GOTS. The cultivation of organic cotton is monitored and controlled from seed to the final fabric processing, including sewing. Inspectors also oversee the social conditions of the workers (video about the cultivation and production of organic cotton). This product is approved by the National Institute of Public Health for food use. Made in India. INSTRUCTIONS FOR ECO-WASHING ORGANIC COTTON: If a stain appears on organic cotton, treat it with GALL SOAP or OLIVE SOAP WITH LEMON EXTRACT before washing. Cotton materials appreciate washing with SOAP NUTS—they remain soft and breathable. You can also use SOAP NUT LAUNDRY GEL for washing. Soap paste is recommended only in case of soft water. We recommend washing at 40 ºC. Shrinkage up to 15%. It will return to its original size when used. Do not use fabric softener on natural materials—it settles on the fibers and reduces their absorbency. For the final rinse bath, use LAUNDRY RINSE, which rinses out any remaining detergent from the material, keeping the laundry soft and breathable (not necessary if washing with soap nuts).
