Is this towel made of certified organic cotton?

to the best our knowledge they are. THis is why we bought them, tho i can't say i know a lot about the standards applied and certifications checked! It matters to us because of the cultivation of cotton can be so toxic. They are nice towels though, we were pleased. At first they didn't seem to soak up as much water but when we washed them they were nicer and did. Maybethere was some sizing on them! not sure but they felt nice right away. I hope that helps!

The tag on the towel says it is made of 100 % organic cotton loops. 100% organic cotton made in the USA. They are great towels.

Hi, I bought these towels in white and according to the tag on the towels, they are 100% Egyptian cotton loop and 100% cotton nothing else! Take care, Andrea

The basic answer is: Yes. However, I'm disappointed in the material I received. I was expecting a cloth like material just like I have used many times before. This batch was like a small paper towel impregnated with alcohol. It cleans and sanitizes okay but is very rough to the feel.

Mine was advertised as 100% cotton, too. Even says so on the package. Opened it up, and it's microfiber (87% polyester and some other fake material). I returned it on Amazon's dime.

It definitely is not plastic. I see a lot and I would classify it as cotton

Yes these towels really are made from linen and they do a superb job of cleaning (in general) and drying (especially glassware of any kind). Totally lint free, absorbent, and they just work super well.

Arlenette, I don't know if they are made of real Turkish cotton, but if you're asking if the material is absorbent (as the wonderful old dish towels made of Turkish cotton, that used to be available, were), the answer is yes. These towels are very nicely absorbent, much as the old Turkish cotton dish towels used to be, before synthetic dishtowels became the norm.

Greetings, Jenni. I found the following representations on the Aurorae yoga website: All yoga mats are free from Phthalates, Latex and Silicone All products are SGS approved (World's Largest Testing Agency) Classic & Northern Lights yoga mats are biodegradable and made from eco-safe PER The towel is microfiber. The company touts the fact its products are "ecofriendly." What I can say is that I actually washed my towel prior to using it. I'm not particularly sensitive to allergens, but I did it anyway to get a nice clean fresh start. I love my towel. I have had absolutely no problems, and it is wonderfully soft and absorbent. Best wishes to you. Namaste. Written by Ginette Mayas.

The package does not describe the cotton as being sterile, so my guess is that it is not.

No, the cotton cover is certified Organic and has not been treated with any fire retardant, or harsh or toxic chemicals. - Yes It's Organic

No, it's microfiber...I thought it was cotton. It is very comfy, but I wouldn't have purchased them if I had known.

Pretty sure it's not organic but yes it is like a work out mat. It is soft fabric with very light cushion.

The previous answer is incorrect. If you wish to be sure that you are really buying organic sheets - buy sheets that are "GOTS certified organic" (GOTS = Global Organic Textile Standard) or think EcoCert® Certified Organic Product, which I think is the certification from other countries that would be acceptable. If it is not GOTS certified, it is pretty doubtful that it really is organic.

Made of 80% Polyester 20% Polycimide, I don't fold the towel, I actually roll it up with my yoga mat to transport it.

Sorry, I have no idea. They were nice towels, just too small for me and not cotton.

There's no reference to being organic on any website that I checked. They are dyed however as stated. I personally recommend the 900 gram Egyptian cotton towels. Expensive but they last... and are incredibly soft and absorbent. I warm them briefly in my large microwave for 30-45 seconds. Hope this helps a bit.

I've only had the cotton peshtemal towel. I have been very happy with these towels and particularly like the fact that they aren't bulky. They fit so well in my gym bag.
