We would like to sincerely apologize to the customers who purchased this product and to everyone who has trusted and patronized CFCL on a daily basis. [Background] We have
investigated the cause of this error and found that this error was caused by insufficient information grasping and communication among CFCL’s business partners, and that CFCL did not have an adequate confirmation process to obtain certification certificates in a timely manner. The cause was that Conventional cotton cultivation requires large amounts of water, chemical fertilizers, and pesticides, and its impact on the soil, environment, and human body has become a problem. In comparison, organic cotton refers to cotton grown using more sustainable cotton cultivation methods that reduce the environmental impact by limiting the use of these chemicals and pesticides. On the other hand, “cotton-in-conversion” is grown in the same way as organic cotton, but because it takes a certain period of time for the soil to become healthy, it is grown for about three years after the start of cultivation. Refers to cotton that has not undergone any process.

These cottons cannot be certified as organic, and internationally they are referred to as “cotton in conversion” or simply “cotton” instead of “organic cotton.” Transaction prices are also generally at the same level as conventional cotton. Due to this situation, even though farmers practice organic farming, they are only able to sell their cotton at the same price as regular cotton, making their income unstable. This is one of the factors preventing the spread of organic cotton. To address this global challenge, CFCL is working with its business partner Stylem Takisada Osaka Co., Ltd. (Stylem) to promote the organic conversion of conventional cotton farming land. Stylem provides organic cotton seeds free of charge to farmers in specific regions of India and sends experts to share knowledge on cultivation methods. Also, cotton during the organic transition period (cotton in conversion) We purchase cotton at the same price level as organic cotton, and are committed to supporting farmers who are starting to grow organic cotton. In addition to actively adopting the company’s cotton-in-conversion product, CFCL has also begun considering new initiatives aimed at providing more direct support to organic cotton farmers. The materials in question went through three domestic textile trading companies from the procurement of cotton to the development of CFCL’s original yarn. The lack of information understanding and communication that led to the incorrect information occurred during the process of twisting and twisting the procured recycled polyester yarn and cotton-in-conversion yarn, and the process of processing it into yarn for knit manufacturing. . Additionally, our company had an insufficient process to check the certification of materials before starting mass production. Although there is no problem with the quality or wear of the product, we will accept the return of the product at your request. If you are interested, please check the products you have and bring them to a CFCL directly managed store, or apply using the link below. We will promptly issue a refund after confirming the product. Return request form CFCL takes this incident seriously and will continue to communicate with each business partner, obtain certificates in a timely manner, and improve the product development process, as well as improve traceability in the supply chain and prevent recurrence. We will do our best to prevent this. Thank you for your understanding.
