History

In the beginning...

Our MD Susan was watching seals on a stunning beach in Scotland when the idea of Cotton Roots was born.  It is now our passion.  A team of ten people plus supporters are lucky to work in buildings set in beautiful Rose Lane Farm which is still a fully working farm. We drive between fields of wheat every day and notice the seasons change with their growth.  Owl nests, buzzards, hares and rabbits everywhere.  It seems fitting to be here.  A place which reminds us of how lucky we are to live in the UK and our determination to treat others fairly – including you!

Our Dream

Our dream is to give you a real choice at your company. The option to choose clothing which ethically stands out.  At Cotton Roots we make clothing for you which is fairly made, ethical sourced and sustainable in creation.   Company clothing with moral fibre is our motto!

We create a distinctive and memorable clothing image for you which visibly shouts out to everyone that you really do care about the people who work with you, all humans and our home earth.

Our desire and determination is to supply you with excellent quality clothing.  This is perfectly possible while growing crops in a fair way and paying a fair price.  It is possible to manufacture the garments with care to both the products and to the people who make them for you. We believe all people understand the idea of fairness.

The quality of our garments is the reason why you will come back for more.  Fit for purpose and a pleasure to wear.  Soft organic products, kind to the skin which are still hardwearing and smart.  Why not?  We can do it. We can use Fairtrade cotton and polyester mixes for superb durability. Sustainability can work both ways, it means your uniform lasts longer.

We are more than T shirts and hoodies.  Our range includes aprons, tabards, work trousers, shirts, blouses, bags and jackets.

Searching for new suppliers is our passion. Shirts and aprons dyed naturally using plants. Wonderful colours. Surprised?  If you visit the British Museum you will see items dyed in this way which are centuries old and still holding their colour vibrantly.

Be part of the story. Lead the way. Be part of history.  Let your organisation be memorable.  We will work hand in hand with you to supply excellent quality, ethically produced, memorable clothing for your organisation.
