Namaskar Gold rediscovered
Namaskar Gold is an old, indigenous Indian desi cotton variety that has been rediscovered. Remei is the only company worldwide to produce collections for retailers and brands made from this original and genetically unmodified fibre under the quality label bioRe® Sustainable Textiles.
Remei, together with local partners and the companies of the bioRe® Foundation, initially solved the technical challenge of spinning the old Indian plant species industrially – which was not easy.
With the successful processing of Namaskar Gold, Remei responds to a desire of Indian farmers, provides Namaskar Gold with market access and offers the trade an innovative solution for sustainable organic cotton ranges with high differentiation.
The Desi cotton Namaskar Gold, which is cultivated by small holders in organic farming, is particularly well adapted to the local climatic conditions, more resistant to pests and drought than other varieties and is therefore particularly appreciated by small holders in the growing region in India.
Each Namaskar Gold style meets the highest requirements of the quality label bioRe® Sustainable Textiles for organic cotton and fair trading, is produced ecologically and CO2-neutral, and can be traced back to its origin.
