Transparency should never stop
at the factory gate.
We carefully select the cotton farms and home textile factories on site. We build long-term relationships with our partners whom we respect as part of our employees and our family.

Uncompromising quality
We have found the ideal partners in India that meet our quality, environmental and social criteria.
The factories we work with produce different types of bed linen with one thing in common: "the search for excellence".
They select the best cottons, use only long-fibre cotton (also called Egyptian cotton) that is incredibly soft and resistant to guarantee softness and quality over time, and are able to weave and knit fine, high quality fabrics. Each piece is meticulously checked by hand.
The owners are involved in the supply chain of GOTS and Fairtrade organic cotton from the fields of the agricultural cooperatives to their workshops. They control each step following a rigorous process. Kalani has implemented a quality control system. It participates in the selection of cotton, pre-finances its farmers' seeds and works directly with the organic cotton cooperatives, while applying strict quality procedures controlled by experts in each field.

Our cotton
Kalani products are made from 100% certified organic and Fairtrade cotton, produced and certified according to organic farming standards. In order to guarantee the quality of the best cotton and the sustainable development of the farms that grow it, we have partnered with other small and medium sized European, American, Japanese and Australian brands.
Thanks to this coalition of brands and this unique approach, we are one of the only brands in the world able to guarantee local communities cotton purchases that allow farmers to live and work with dignity in terms of health and finances.
