Laminated jute has a layer of LDPE biodegradable plastic fused to one side of the material, providing some rigidity. Bags like the Farmhouse and Messenger that need structure are made with laminated jute. Unlaminated jute is pliable, with a stretchable weave. It is best suited for bags that do not need to be rigid, such as the Hope or Duel.

onventional cotton farming consumes massive quantities of toxic insecticides to control pests. These hazardous toxins pollute the environment and cause serious health problems for poorly protected Indian cotton laborers.
By using natural pest control methods organic cotton farming removes the need for toxic chemicals. You get great cotton. Farmers live healthier lives. Everyone wins. Thats why we use GOTS certied organic cotton.
