Egyptian cotton is undoubtedly an extraordinary commodity that has played a prominent role in Egypt's economic, social, as well as political history during the past two centuries. From the times of the MAHO-JUMMEL varieties in the early 1800s up to the present, Egyptian Cotton Gossypium Barbandese has always been a synonym to fineness and high-standard.
The Egyptian Cotton Logo™ (ECL) is a sign representing this superior quality. It is used on products made from 100% Egyptian Barbadense Cotton.
The Logo is licensed in Egypt to cotton growers that follow specific growing instructions complying with the ECL standards. Cotton traders, ginners, yarn spinners, as well as fabric producers, cut and sew manufacturers, and retailers both inside Egypt and around the world can apply for the license.
The Egyptian Cotton Logo™ is owned and marketed by Cotton Egypt™ and the Egyptian Ministry of Foreign Trade.
Cotton Egypt™ is a subsidiary of ALCOTEXA, Egypt
