All about BCI certification
A certification that's good for the planet
In a context where sustainable fashion is becoming increasingly important, the BCI certification (Better Cotton Initiative) stand out as a genuine pledge of commitment to cotton production that is more respectful of the environment and working conditions. At BILLYBELT, we choose responsible materials, and several of our iconic cotton pieces are BCI-certified: velvet shorts, denim overshirts, chino pants and cargo pants.
What is BCI certification
The Better Cotton Initiative is the world's largest cotton sustainability program. It aims to make cotton growing more sustainable, both environmentally and socially, by training farmers in more responsible farming practices:
- Reduced water use
- Fewer chemical pesticides
- Respect for workers' rights
- Better soil management
The aim: to produce cotton in a more reasoned way, while ensuring transparent traceability throughout the textile supply chain.
