Protect Your Newborn Baby’s Skin
Natural fibres are safer for your little ones and better for their skin. Organic cotton fabric is a popular choice for baby and children’s clothing as it is free of both cotton pesticides and toxic chemicals found in synthetic materials. When you purchase synthetic fabrics, they may contain plastics, chemical products, pesticides, or other toxins. The same is valid for buying cotton that isn’t 100% pure. Exposure to these substances may cause skin irritations as baby’s skin is delicate.
Cotton fibres are soft and free of chemicals providing the finest possible experience of comfort for your baby’s skin. In particular, making a choice to purchase organic cotton is recommended for baby’s who suffer from eczema and other skin conditions. This provides peace of mind as it reduces the risk of the baby’s skin being irritated. Thus it is entirely safe for use against sensitive skin.
ergoPouch ’22 Spring/Summer collection is made with sustainable natural fibres that are eczema friendly and gentle on sensitive skin.

Eco-Friendly
Wearing clothes made from organic materials is beneficial if you are concerned about protecting our earth and the environment. Organic Cotton provides a sustainable solution which is grown without harmful chemicals, reducing water pollution by up to 5 times, compared to conventional cotton.
Organic baby clothes have less of an effect on the natural world. Farming that follows organic practices places less strain on the surrounding ecosystem, and it does not incorporate potentially dangerous ingredients into the final product. Also, the production of these clothing does not include the usage of GMOs.
If you are looking for choices for your newborn while wanting to protect the environment consider ergoPouch’s signature TOG-Rated Organic Cotton which provides Safe Sleep as the nights become warmer.

No Pesticides or Chemicals
Cotton is one of the most widely used products and fabrics in the world, but did you know it can be seriously damaging to the environment? The reason for this is that it increases water pollution as production is heavily treated with various pesticides. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) believes many of these which include fancy bug sprays, and the widely used permethrin, are carcinogens. These sprays ensure that our t-shirts, jumpers, and blankets are delivered to us as quickly and inexpensively as possible.
Although synthetic fabrics are frequently used for making baby clothes, it is essential to remember that these fabrics may include petrochemicals and plastics. Organic baby clothes are safe from cotton pesticides and various harmful or risky substances that can be found in synthetic materials. This not only gives parents the peace of mind they need but also helps reduce the likelihood that your child’s skin will become irritated. This is incredibly encouraging information for babies who suffer from eczema.

Durability
Considering the amount of washing a baby’s clothing goes through, it’s worthwhile considering good quality clothing to have in rotation. The strength and durability of organic fabrics are identical to those of conventional cotton but without the use of harmful pesticides and other chemical treatments. It’s typically farmed with more attention to detail. Therefore the quality is likely to be even higher. The organic and non-toxic sleepwear can also be washed repeatedly without deteriorating or becoming unsightly.
You may get more use out of your organic sleepwear as Organic Cotton is strong and will last longer than regular cotton. This is because cotton is often picked by hand, and the organic cotton fibres are not damaged by harsh chemicals thus making the fibres stronger and more durable.

More Comfort for Baby
You can be assured that your child’s skin will be less prone to irritation and rashes when they wear clothing made from organic fabric at home and whilst toddlers are playing outside. Whether in a hot, humid area or a cold, damp one, the material will adjust to the environment and keep your babies comfortable.
Babies are less prone to overheat because of the organic cotton’s ability to drain away moisture and allow excellent air circulation. In addition to allowing air to flow through the material, the tiny holes scattered throughout ensure babies don’t overheat in warmer months.
The unique qualities of cotton make it easier to find year-round options while shopping for baby apparel. Because it is suitable for warm spring and summer nights, and also for nights that can become chilly, organic cotton eliminates the need to stock up on two distinct types of fabric for the year.
