With a lot of love and from 100% organic cotton. In contrast to conventional cotton cultivation, the organic cotton we use from Africa is grown free of chemical pesticides and fertilisers. Genetic manipulation techniques are strictly forbidden. Organic cotton is grown alternately with other types of plants. These diverse crop rotations help to maintain the natural fertility of the soil and at the same time reduce the susceptibility to plant diseases and pests. In addition, organic cotton requires less water to be grown and therefore requires less local resources.

Safe baby sleep means that there are no risks while sleeping and that any risk factors are minimised or reduced. Overheating of your baby are among the avoidable risk factors for Sudden Infant Death Syndrome. Both can be prevented by using baby sleeping bags. The use of pillows, duvets, nests and furs, long canopies or mosquito nets over the baby bed and waterproof pads in the baby bed should be avoided entirely. A hot water bottle, a heating pad, a warm grain or cherry stone pillow should also not be used in a cot.

Tog is a unit of measurement for the thermal resistance of textiles. The larger the tog size, the warmer the sleeping bag will keep your child. Please follow our recommendations below to decide which tog size is right for your baby. The tog size depends largely on the room temperature of the children's room.

Our baby sleeping bags and sleeping bags with feet are available in 3 tog sizes:

• 0.5 tog made from two-layer fabric, completely unlined and suitable for hot summer nights and room temperatures above 24 degrees.
• 1.0 tog lightly lined without sleeves and suitable for room temperatures of 18-24 degrees.
• 2.5 tog padded without sleeves, recommended for year-round use and room temperatures of 15-21 degrees.

In general, when choosing a sleeping bag, the following always applies: "The thickness of the sleeping bag and the baby's clothes must be adapted to the room temperature and not to the season." The appropriate clothing in the sleeping bag is also decisive.

The main purpose of keeping track of resources is to minimise the environmental impact of waste. The chain reaction of the exploited resource can range from a plant contaminated by pesticides to poor pay for a factory worker and thus to social inequality. A polyester T-shirt costs only five pounds, then you can buy two or three other pieces.

But if the price tag for a T-shirt made from organic cotton were ten pounds, then the consumer would know about the sustainability in the value chain. Due to the higher final price, the factory worker gets a fair wage and can, for example, buy higher quality food. The freight forwarder can have his fleet serviced more often in order to reduce the emissions of his vehicle. The cotton farmer does not get in touch with pesticides during harvest, can pay his workers fairly and his plants can renew themselves. Thus, you might just purchase one T-Shirt only, but it is kind to the environment and, thanks to its high quality - lasts longer.

If we do not change anything in our consumer behaviour, as in scenario one, then social inequality in the world increases, damage to the environment increases and the amount of resources available to us decreases.

The happiness and well-being of children is important to us. We have a responsibility to those who are less well off. That is why we, as a company, are involved in development aid in Kenya in order to positively influence the future of disadvantaged families and children. As a partner of the non-profit organisation Buy1Give1, we have already supported a large number of projects around the world to help people help themselves. With every Organix product sold, we plant a mango tree in order to improve ecological and economic living conditions for local families.
