Frequently Asked Questions

What should I look for when buying non-toxic clothing?

1. Textile finishes 2. Dyes and treatments 3. Fiber type

What ingredients should I avoid in clothing?

"Wrinkle-free," "stain-resistant," heavy prints, vinyl decals

How do I care for non-toxic clothing?

Wash all new clothes before first wear. Secondhand baby clothes have been washed many times, reducing residual chemicals. Avoid fabric softener on kids' clothes — it coats fibers with chemicals. Line-dry when possible.

What greenwashing should I watch for with clothing?

"100% cotton" doesn't mean organic or chemical-free — conventional cotton is one of the most pesticide-heavy crops. "Oeko-Tex" tests the finished product for harmful substances but doesn't mean organic.
