Sustainability & Ethics

At the core of Granelito's mission is a commitment to sustainability and ethical practices. Uncompromising in this endeavor, we consistently seek innovative solutions to enhance our eco-friendly initiatives. We collaborate directly with the producers responsible for crafting Granelito's garments.


BERGMAN RIVERA
Our cotton garments exclusively use organic Pima cotton cultivated in the northern coast of Peru by Bergman Rivera. As a Swedish-Peruvian family-owned company, Bergman Rivera has been a pioneer in Organic Cotton Textile production since 1986. Currently managing two projects of white and one of color-grown cotton, they support over 160 families across three valleys in Peru. Proudly the first Latin American company G.O.T.S certified, Bergman Rivera ensures the traceability of our organic cotton, fair treatment throughout the production chain, and a commitment to environmental sustainability.


KUSA COTTON
The fabric is then entrusted to Kusa Cotton, our cut-and-sew factory with over 20 years of global recognition for producing high-end Pima organic cotton apparel. Kusa Cotton maintains responsible social practices, packs garments in compostable bags, and dispatches them to our fulfillment centers in Richmond, US, and Southwest Sweden near Helsingborg.

 

MATERIAL
Our primary material of choice is organic Pima cotton. Presently, our fabric compositions include 100% organic Pima cotton, while our ribbed fabrics incorporate 4-5% spandex. This spandex content imparts a distinct character and feel to our ribbed textiles.


PACKAGING
Conscious of environmental impact, our garment bags are crafted from compostable materials, eliminating unnecessary plastics. Each garment is individually bagged to ensure cleanliness and neatness during transit to our end customers.


GENDER
Granelito challenges conventional gender norms by not categorizing collections by gender. This allows our resellers and customers to define their preferences and encourages shared wardrobes among siblings and friends. Purchasing slightly larger sizes extends the garment's lifespan, aligning with our belief in buying less but better.
