WORDS FROM GREENFIBRES:

Greenfibres is a leading online shop for organic, ethical, natural fibre clothing and goods. We specialise in supplying quality fairly traded clothing and textiles, wool, hemp, linen, silk and other kinds of organic fabric.

WHY WE DO WHAT WE DO

TO REDUCE THE AMOUNT OF CHEMICALS PRODUCED AND USED

Greenfibres’ organic textiles undergo minimal treatment and processing. There are thousands of chemicals used in conventional textile production & finishing processes which often have devastating effects on habitats, rivers, soil and people. If the raw material, be it cotton, wool, silk – or some other natural fibre – can be grown or reared organically we will be using it. This helps to reduce the amount of pesticides, insecticides, synthetic fertilisers, and synthetic textile chemicals used each year.

TO INCREASE THE LEVEL OF WELFARE FOR ALL INVOLVED

This starts with the farmer and the cotton picker working in a safe environment, getting paid a fair wage, and continues with the textile worker assembling garments in good working conditions for decent pay. It also includes the animals who supply the raw materials for the products. Finally, choosing an organic alternative gives you the satisfaction and peace of mind that the textiles are healthy for your skin and have been made with genuine care and consideration.

TO PROMOTE ORGANIC AGRICULTURE

We believe growing crops and raising livestock in accordance with natural principles is one of the key ways we can make our collective actions more sustainable, and reduce our carbon footprints.

If you appreciate products that are enhanced by their history, not compromised by it, give us a try.

HOW WE DO WHAT WE DO

Greenfibres is a small company, with a small team, and few corporate ambitions. For you this means you get a dedicated, personal service, beautiful products, and no hard sell. We aim to offer all of our customers a fair, courteous and informative service.
During our office hours you can talk to someone who really knows the products and most likely has one at home themselves. Sometimes people contact us and just want to bounce some eco idea off or voice a concern they want to discuss. That’s fine! The organic world is still very small and we may really have heard about a green alternative to bungee jumping (we haven’t, but if we had we’d tell you, and no, hemp rope is really not a good idea!)
You won’t be able to speak to us at 11 o’clock at night because that’s when we are asleep on our organic mattresses, but you can leave us a message and we’ll always call you back. You can order on our website 24 hours a day, and we even have a live online chat function, where you can ask instant questions during office hours or message us if we’re closed.

WHAT YOU CAN FIND AT GREENFIBRES: ORGANIC AND ETHICALLY MADE BEDDING AND CLOTHING, PERSONAL SERVICE, THOUGHTFUL APPROACH TO MANUFACUTRING AND TRADING EXPERIENCE, COSY ORGANIC COTTON PILLOWCASES, BREATHABLE SOCKS, SKINCARE, KITCHEN AND BATHROOM.
