BETTER COTTON 

STANDARD SYSTEM

BE CAREFUL

The Better Cotton Standard System is a holistic approach to sustainable cotton production that covers all three pillars of sustainability: environmental, social and economic. Each of these elements – from the Principles and Criteria to the monitoring mechanisms that show results and have an impact – work together to support the Better Cotton Standard System and the credibility of Better Cotton and BCI. The system is designed to ensure the exchange of good
practices and to encourage the scaling up of collective action to establish Better Cotton as a sustainable mainstream commodity
