Aventura Clothing has been recognized by the Textile Exchange for its efforts in converting more of its women’s clothing styles over to sustainable, eco-friendly and organic fabrics. Aventura is number one in the Textile Exchange’s Race to the Top for their league.
Since 2002, Aventura has been a member of the Textile Exchange, a global nonprofit organization that works closely with all sectors of the textile supply chain to find the best ways to minimize and even reverse the negative impacts on water, soil, air, and the human population created by the clothing industry. The Race to the Top Award celebrates those companies who are converting their ranges to organic cotton, in order of percentage total cotton consumption.
“When we were first developing the concept for Aventura Clothing in 2005 we attended the Organic Exchange conference (now Textile Exchange).” states John Kirsch, President of Aventura Clothing. “Following that conference, we were surprised how the larger brands at the event were willing to open up and help brands that were interested in getting into the organic cotton/textile space.”
