What do a tomato and a tablecloth have in common?
We wanted to use this collection to encourage dinner table conversations about the food around us and the textiles we wear and use. We want to spark conversations about about the fact cotton, like the food we eat, comes from the ground and why that’s important.
Healthy soil helps us grow healthy and nutritious food to keep us healthy and is a major sequester of carbon dioxide, a vital part of the solution to slow the warming of our planet.
By reconnecting the dots we can start conversations about prioritising materials that will go back to the ground in the same way that our fruit and vegetable peelings can be put in the compost to help our vegetables grow better next year.
CARE INSTRUCTIONS
Machine washable at 30 degrees, please hang to dry if possible to protect the planet. We recommend spot washing wherever possible and only machine washing when absolutely necessary, this increases the life span of all textiles and reduces carbon emissions and water use.
OUR PRODUCTION VALUES
The factory we partner with in India works to negate all harmful aspects of production. The GOTS certified organic cotton used in our bedding is primarily rain-fed and the factory is working to reduce their production water usage by 20% each year. The dyes used in our digital print are organic approved avoiding producing any harmful by products. Only bio-degradable packaging is used to ship the bedding safely from our supplier in India to us in the UK.
Housing is provided for around 50% staff with free water and electricity with plans to increase this to 100% in the next few years. Importantly, during the Covid Pandemic they continued to pay their staff 100% of their salary.
Forivor is committed to doing more as we become a more viable business, moving from a fledgling company where we were ourselves finding our way to understanding where we can have an impact and what we can change within our own products and supply chain to have a more positive impact.
