The residents are committed to designing products that respect the environment and people. All our products are made from Oeko-Tex certified fabrics . We don't have organic bed linen yet, but it's in progress, in line with our organic cotton accessories ... The pretty patterns on the cotton percale bed linen are made with Azo Free ink . In addition, all our products are produced locally , by our textile workshops in Europe .
Organic cotton products
So, no organic bed linen range yet, but don't worry, our cotton gauze bed linen and cotton percale bed linen have other qualities that we will detail just after. In addition, all our accessories, tote bags , bowling bags , toiletry bags , pouches (small and large) and pencil cases are cut from a thick organic cotton canvas. Yes! The residents are eco-friendly !
European manufacturing
We are environmentally conscious, our products are carefully manufactured in our textile workshops in Europe , more precisely in the north of Portugal. Our double cotton gauze is woven in Portugal, then all the products are dyed, printed and made on site. This means that our items are produced with "cleaner" energy than that used on the other side of the world, and with decent working conditions and supervised by European legislation . In a socially and ecologically responsible environment therefore.
In addition, Portugal has been known for its textile industry since the 18th century. By importing the necessary machinery from Great Britain, the Portuguese were able to equip dozens of workshops and become one of the major players in the textile market . Today, Portugal has been able to renew its machinery and is known for its impressive know-how and expertise in high-quality clothing and household linen . The " Made in Portugal " label is a symbol of quality and sustainability.
European production also allows Elsa, the brand's creator, to regularly visit our workshops to keep an eye on the quality of the products.
Oeko-Tex Certification
What does Oeko-Tex certification mean? This certification is one of the best known in the world. It ensures the high quality of our fabrics and therefore of our products. All our products are Oeko-Tex certified, which guarantees the absence of toxic and harmful products for the skin and the environment. Our double cotton gauze bed linen and cotton percale bed linen are therefore suitable for sensitive skin due to their soft feel.
Azo-free inks
The inks used to design our beautiful timeless patterns are Azo free ! Literally translated, this certification means free of Azo class dyes. These have been recognized as dangerous. As a result, the inks used to create the polka dots, stripes, flowers and checks are free of heavy metals and therefore not harmful to the skin and the environment . What more could you ask for?!
Finally, the residents participate in Refashion, a program promoting the circular economy . All these certifications allow us to offer you quality and therefore sustainable products .
