If organic production is to expand, textile and
clothing companies need to stimulate the demand.
Manufacturers in California took this step in the
early 1990s, and many other companies are now
following suit. Lynda Grose was involved at the
outset and writes about the part designers can play
in this process.
Mills
•The main costs for mills in processing organic
fibre are incurred in cleaning the spinning
machinery between running conventional and
organic cotton. Whole spinning lines are shut
down, air-blown and reset to prevent the
organic fibre from being contaminated with
pesticide residues from the previous
conventional fibre run.
