18 Best Sustainable and Organic Bathroom Products

One of the best ways to make your bathroom greener is with Organic Cotton Towels. When shopping around, look for the GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) label, which ensures they're made with organically grown plant fibers and that each stage of the supply chain adheres to the organization's strict standards for environmental safety.

Created with the planet and your health in mind, these towels are sourced from sustainably harvested cotton. They're supremely fluffy, exceptionally absorbent and quick-drying with a super-soft nubby texture.

Oeko-Tex Certified Bath Linens

Organic bath linens like the set mentioned above are often Oeko-Tex certified, but not all Oeko-Tex certified towels are organic. For instance, these sustainably made Spa Towels carry the Oeko-Tex label, which means they're made without synthetic dyes or other harsh chemicals that could harm you or the environment.

Woven from 56% long-staple Turkish cotton and 44% European flax fibers (a renewable resource), the fabric is incredibly fluffy and plush, yet lightweight and quick-drying. Cotton provides softness, while flax-sourced linen offers exceptional durability, absorbency and even antibacterial benefits.

Sustainable Bath Mat

You can also get an Organic Cotton Tub Mat to complement your towels. This GOTS-certified piece is not only impeccably soft and plush but also naturally absorbent and fast-drying to prevent your floors from getting soaked.

Handmade Artisan Rug

In addition to a bathmat, you can deck out your cruelty-free bathroom floors with a Hand-Knit Rug. This boho-inspired piece is made by artisans using long-staple Turkish cotton at nearly 3,000 grams per square meter to create a thick, cozy feel underfoot.

Organic Cotton Robe

Bathrobes are both functional and decorative, especially if you get one to match your towels and hang it on a hook in your eco-friendly bathroom. The Organic Cotton Robe is certified by both GOTS and Oeko-Tex, so you can bet it's sustainably sourced and ethically produced.

Linen Robe

As mentioned above, flax is considered a renewable resource because the plants regrow quickly after harvesting. And when sustainable bathroom products are sourced from flax plants grown in Europe, like the Linen Robe, they're even more environmentally friendly. That’s because the crops need almost no additional water than what they get from natural rainfall.

Linen Shower Curtain

The Linen Shower Curtain is also loomed from European flax fibers. Featuring stitched buttonholes at the top hem, it's lightweight but still plenty drapey with the laid-back yet luxurious appeal you can only get with linen.

Stoneware Soap Dish

Looking for sustainable bathroom products to place on your counter? The all-natural and inherently durable Triangle Soap Dish was handmade and glazed in a small pottery studio in Virginia Beach. Another reason to use bar soap? It usually calls for less packaging than other types of cleansers.
