The Casual Edge Offers Eco-Friendly Custom Embroidery and Printing Options

Dec. 8, 2011 - PRLog -- The Casual Edge of Wilmington, NC wants to do their part to promote environmental responsibility by offering their customers eco-friendly choices.  They are pleased to carry a variety of environmentally friendly apparel items and accessories that can be customized with embroidery or screen printing.  Their huge selection of apparel and accessories now includes both organic cotton items as well as recycled polyester items.

More and more people are choosing more environmentally friendly apparel to benefit both themselves and the planet.  One reason is that organic natural fibers are a healthier choice for the individual wearing them.  Cotton that is conventionally produced has most likely been exposed to a wide variety of toxic chemicals.  Conventional cotton crops are usually sprayed heavily with insecticides and may even be genetically modified.  Then during the processing the cotton is exposed to many more toxic, cancer causing products, some of which may be absorbed through the skin.  Organic cotton is produced without these toxic chemicals, which means better health for the individual wearing the cotton, and also better health for all of the workers involved in producing and processing the cotton.  Additionally organic cotton can provide much needed relief for those that have sensitive skin or allergic reactions to certain dyes or chemicals.  Another reason organic natural fibers are increasingly popular is that they are far better for the environment.  Because of the large amount of insecticides and other chemicals used on conventional cotton, its production puts a heavy burden of pollution on the land as well as the waterways on which we all rely.  Organic cotton growers promote healthy farmland naturally.  Environmentally friendly processing doesn't compromise workers health and helps to reduce energy and water consumption as well.  Apparel made with recycled materials is another environmentally friendly option.  The Casual Edge carries items that are made from recycled polyester.  This material contains 40-45% post consumer recycled material from recycled soda bottles and packaging containers.  It is a soft, breathable fabric that is comfortable to wear and also good for the environment.
