Restore and Revitalize

Regenerative systems restore and revitalize soil health, sequester carbon emissions and combat climate change.

Alignment with Natural Cycles

Ushers in a multitude of additional and interrelated co-benefits related to biodiversity, water conservation and quality, reduction in greenhouse emissions, and the improving of livelihoods.

Conventional Cotton

Production requires deep-tilling, high-water consumption, and excessive use of chemicals and pesticides.

Long Term Effects

Its long term effects are disastrous for the atmosphere, the waterways, the fields and the farmers who work them.

With regenerative farming, the cycle is reversed.

Blanket in the Off-Season.

In our fields, we employ proprietary no-till/no-plough machinery, and specialized cover crops that act as a blanket in the off-season. 

Non-GMO Cotton Seeds

This way, carbon, moisture and the nutrients in the soil remain undisturbed and are reutilized by specially treated non-GMO cotton seeds.

Holistic Approach

For us at SÖKTAŞ, cultivating Regenerative Cotton requires a holistic, place-based, systems approach.

Constantly Experimenting

It is not a straightforward, one-size-fits-all set of practices. We work in close collaboration with leading researchers in the field, and are constantly experimenting and refining our approach.

The Next Phase

With its unique two-century-old agriculture heritage, and its fifty-year expertise in yarn and fabric production, SÖKTAŞ is proud to lead this next phase in the development of cotton fabrics. 

The Way Forward…

We truly believe that innovation motivated by the tenets of sustainable production and environmental care, is the only way forward.
