When the idea for Jus Animalium Brand Apparel was created, it was originally to help bring more awareness and assistance in preventing animal abuse and exploitation, which is still the main drive behind the brand. But after learning about how harsh to the environment producing apparel is, the JABA team decided to make it an all around positive brand by producing it using only Earth friendly materials and processes.

ORGANIC COTTON

The JABA line of soft men and women
beast-T's is made sweat-shop free
with 100% certified organic cotton solely using renewable green energy from wind power, produced under Global Organic Textile Standard, certified by the soil association
and is printed eco-friendly in the USA.

Organic cotton is grown using methods and materials that have a low impact on the environment. Organic production systems replenish and maintain soil fertility, reduce the use of toxic and persistent pesticides and fertilizers, and build biologically diverse agriculture. Third-party certification organizations verify that organic producers use only methods and materials allowed in organic production. Organic cotton is grown without the use of toxic and persistent pesticides and synthetic fertilizers. In addition, federal regulations prohibit the use of genetically engineered seed for organic farming. All cotton sold as organic in the United States must meet strict federal regulations covering how the cotton is grown.

BAMBOO

The JABA line of pet beast-T's is made with 100% Bamboo and is digitally printed using waterbased ink, the most eco-friendly method of printing available today.

Bamboo is a type of grass that grows like
a weed. It's the fastest growing plant in the world and can grow up to three feet in one day. Bamboo doesn't need pesticides or insecticides, and it grows well on rain water. The pulp from bamboo is ground up,
and the fibers are spun into yarn.
The resulting fabric is softer than cotton,
with superior performance and contains
absorbant fibers that keep you cool.
