SUSTAINABLE MATERIALS & PROCESSES
Organic Cotton
Organic cotton is cultivated using methods and materials that have a low impact on the environment. Free from synthetic pesticides and fertilizers, this cotton is grown in a way that preserves soil health and promotes biodiversity. The result is a soft, breathable fabric that’s gentle on the skin and on the planet.
At WESTMARK, our organic cotton is OCS-certified (Organic Content Standard), ensuring that the cotton we source is verified organic throughout the supply chain. This certification guarantees that our cotton is produced with lower water usage and without harmful chemicals, making it better for the planet and for you.
VISCOSE
Viscose is a versatile fabric made from renewable wood sources. It’s known for its soft feel and elegant drape, providing a blend of comfort and sophistication that suits a wide range of styles.
At WESTMARK, we use LENZING™ certified viscose, including LENZING™ ECOVERO™ viscose, which is derived from sustainable wood and pulp. This certification ensures that the production process has a significantly lower environmental impact, making it a responsible choice for eco-conscious consumer
MODAL
Modal is an exceptionally smooth and lightweight fabric derived from beech tree pulp. It’s known for its silky texture and excellent moisture absorption, making it perfect for garments that need to be both comfortable and stylish.
We use LENZING™ Modal, sourced from sustainably managed forests, processed in a way that reduces environmental impact. This eco-conscious fabric provides a luxurious feel while remaining kind to the planet, making it a favorite for those who want to look good and feel good.
RECYCLED COTTON
Recycled cotton is a smart, sustainable alternative to new cotton. By repurposing cotton waste, we reduce the demand for virgin cotton and divert textiles from landfills. The result is a fabric that offers the same comfort and softness you expect from cotton, with a much smaller environmental footprint.
Our recycled cotton is a testament to our commitment to sustainability, allowing you to enjoy the natural benefits of cotton while supporting a circular economy.
RECYCLED POLYESTER
Recycled polyester is created by repurposing plastic waste, such as PET bottles, into high-quality fibers. This process significantly reduces the need for virgin polyester, thereby conserving resources and reducing environmental impact. By transforming plastic waste into a valuable resource, recycled polyester helps to keep plastics out of landfills and oceans, contributing to a more sustainable planet.
At WESTMARK, we use recycled polyester in our garments to provide durable, versatile, and eco-friendly clothing options. This fabric retains all the qualities of traditional polyester—such as moisture-wicking, quick-drying, and durability—while offering a reduced environmental footprint. By choosing recycled polyester, you’re supporting a circular economy, where materials are reused and repurposed, reducing waste and conserving natural resources.
UNDYED COTTON
Undyed raw cotton is cotton in its most natural state. Without any dyes or chemical treatments, this fabric is as close to nature as it gets. It’s soft, breathable, and hypoallergenic, offering pure comfort with a minimal environmental impact.
By choosing undyed raw cotton, you’re embracing a product that is not only kind to the skin but also reduces water and energy consumption, making it a simple yet powerful choice for sustainability.
BETTER COTTON
BCI (Better Cotton Initiative) cotton is produced with a focus on sustainability and social responsibility. This initiative aims to make global cotton production better for the environment and the farming communities by promoting practices that minimize the environmental impact of cotton farming and improve the livelihoods of farmers.
At WESTMARK, we source BCI cotton to ensure that the cotton used in our garments is grown with a reduced environmental footprint. This includes more efficient water usage, reduced use of harmful chemicals, and practices that support biodiversity. By choosing BCI cotton, you’re supporting a more sustainable and ethical cotton industry, while enjoying the comfort and quality of cotton that meets high environmental and social standards.
