COTTON POSITIVE
“IN CONVERSION” TRANSFORMATION
KARIBAN BRANDS is committed to deploying «In Conversion» cotton by developing a comprehensive and sustainable support
programme for farmers, enabling them to gradually switch from conventional cotton to organic cotton cultivation.
3 YEARS 3 YEARS 3 YEARS
It takes 3 years to rid conventional cotton plots from traces of pesticides and to regenerate.
From the first day of this transition programme, production scrupulously complies with the standards required by the
organic sectors.

KARIBAN : GOTS CERTIFIED IC COTTON
The Kariban brand has chosen to end its item codes with the letters «IC», so it’s easier to identify
«In Conversion» items.
Maintaining its progress towards more sustainable collections, Kariban insisted that all «IC» designs obtain
GOTS-In-Conversion certification (Global Organic Cotton Standard) EGL/165651.
The different stages of this biological transition:
Natural cotton No pesticides No GMOs No chemical Crop rotation Sustainable use of
seeds fertilisers culture resources
