Vayoil Textil se incorpora como socio a Better Cotton (BCI)

Better Cotton is a non-profit organization that seeks to improve cotton farming. It does this by helping cotton communities around the world to thrive and survive with the goal of reducing the environmental impact of cotton production.

Being a member of this organization is the first step in a joint work that entails a series of obligations for the member companies whose compliance over time allows them to climb up the ladder.

Vayoil Textil has just been admitted as a member of the select international group Better Cotton (BCI). The company continues its strategy of creating more sustainable articles with the same quality standards. To this end, it is committed to two ways: using recycled material of the same quality as conventional material and, on the other hand, working to ensure that the raw material and its production process are as sustainable as possible. A job that requires a lot of investment and work given the use and washing conditions to which the hotel textile product is subjected.

Being a member of the international association Better Cotton means Vayoil Textil's commitment to obtain cotton of responsible origin. It should not be forgotten that cotton is natural, renewable and biodegradable, but its production requires a high use of water and chemicals. For this reason, the association works to train farmers around the world to improve agricultural practices, in addition to respecting workers' rights.

Right now this Better Cotton organization works with more than two million farmers in 23 countries who together produced about 23% of the world's cotton using 10% less water than traditional farmers and using 10% less pesticides. Without reducing profitability or crop productivity.

The company, Vayoil Textil adds a new achievement in its philosophy of trying to be as sustainable as possible. Currently, it has also reduced the use of plastics in its day-to-day operations and is also working to reduce in its production centers and central services the consumption of energy, fuel, and improvements in machinery efficiency which have allowed it to go from a carbon footprint of 37% in 2017 to 6% in 2020. The company also uses cardboard boxes without metal packaging and 100% recycled and recyclable material in the distribution of its products.

In the words of the Director of Vayoil Textil, Arturo Hernandez: "Wt Vayoil Textil we are concerned about our planet today and, above all, its future and that is why the company is committed to incorporating into the hospitality market products that have this philosophy (reduce, reuse, recycle, redesign, recover and replace) and our innovation walks with this green commitment".
