History:
In 2002, Bgreen
put their passion for the planet and years of experience in apparel
manufacturing behind the creation of the Bgreen brand, their first NatureUSA
label. The idea was simple: offer quality, organic cotton garments that look
good, fit comfortably and leave the world a better place.
NatureUSA has
been using certified-organic cotton and low-impact dyes for more than a decade.
Our hard work and dedication has earned us a reputation as a premier domestic
manufacturer.
As citizens
of the planet, we believe it is everyone’s responsibility to protect and
preserve our natural resources for this generation and many more to come. And,
with the support of a growing number of conscious consumers, we intend to
continue to do our part.

Why
Organic?
Mike Farid’s
personal note:
Organic
cotton is a superior product worth the effort and the expense. Planet Earth is
the only home we have and we share the land, the air, the water and its other
limited resources. Each of us ought to contribute everything we can to
protecting and preserving our delicate planet for this generation and many more
to come.
As a company,
I believe it is our social responsibility to offer the consumer the choice of
buying a superior product with a sustainable future in mind.

Organic
Facts:
• Cotton uses approximately 25% of the world's
insecticides and more than 10% of the pesticides (including herbicides,
insecticides, and defoliants).
• The
Environmental Protection Agency considers seven of the top 15 pesticides used
on cotton in the United States as "possible", "likely",
"probable", or "known" human carcinogens (acephate,
dichloropropene, diuron, fluometuron, pendimethalin, tribufos, and
trifluralin).
• According
to USDA in the United Sates in the year 2000 over 2.03 billion pounds of
synthetic fertilizers were applied to conventional cotton fields (142
pounds/acre), making cotton the fourth most heavily fertilized crop behind
corn, winter wheat, and soybeans.
• These
harmful chemicals pollute the air, deplete the soil and contaminate our fresh
water resources (ground water, rivers, lakes, and etc.)
