About
Coyuchi fibre report from Hold The Throne: the real plant fibre percentage and natural score, tested by label to the Throne Standard.
Feature 1
Coyuchi builds its bedding and apparel around GOTS-certified organic cotton, grown and woven in India, the fibre it has used since it started in 1991. GOTS requires at least 95% organic fibre and bans the harmful chemicals used on conventional cotton, so the core cotton range is a genuinely natural, certified fibre. Coyuchi is not vegan, and it also sells wool and goose-down lines alongside the cotton.
Feature 2
Coyuchi's cotton is Fair Trade Certified, and the brand pays a Fair Trade premium that funds worker-managed community development funds at its mills. Its products are also MADE SAFE certified, screened against harmful chemicals, and it is a member of 1% for the Planet, directing contributions to Fibershed's carbon-farming work. It runs a circular take-back and renewal programme for used linens.
Feature 3
Founded in 1991 in Point Reyes Station, California, by Christine Nielson after she found naturally brown coyuchi cotton in Oaxaca, Mexico, the company was among the first to bring organic cotton bedding to the US market. It has since taken outside investment through a public offering, so it is no longer solely founder-owned, and it holds a public pledge of net zero by 2025 and net positive by 2030.

H3 Q1: Is [Brand] sustainable / ethical?
Is Coyuchi bedding sustainable and ethical?
Answer 1
Coyuchi is strong on materials for its bed linen: our scan found its sheets, duvet covers and pillowcases are 100% GOTS certified organic cotton or organic French linen. GOTS certification is third party verifiable, covers the whole supply chain and bans toxic dyes and finishes, and Coyuchi is also MADE SAFE certified and Fair Trade Certified. Under our plant fibre only standard the caveat is that Coyuchi also sells wool, down and alpaca comforters, bed blankets and inserts, which are animal fibre, so the brand as a whole is not plant only.
H3 Q2: Where is [Brand] made?
Where is Coyuchi bedding made?
Answer 2
Coyuchi grows its organic cotton in India, West Texas and Turkey, and weaves its bedding in Portugal and India. The brand is based in Point Reyes Station, California.
H3 Q3: Who owns [Brand]?
Who owns Coyuchi?
Answer 3
Coyuchi was founded in 1991 by Christine Nielson and is based in Point Reyes Station, California. It was one of the first organic home textile brands in the United States.
H3 Q4: Is [Brand] legit / worth it?
Is Coyuchi legit and worth it?
Answer 4
Coyuchi is a real, currently trading business with a live e-commerce site. Its organic cotton and linen sheeting is GOTS certified and genuinely plant fibre, and is a good choice for a natural bed. For a completely plant fibre, animal free bed, choose its cotton and linen sheeting and skip the wool, down and alpaca filled items.
H3 Q5: Is [Brand] fast fashion?
Is Coyuchi bedding non-toxic?
Answer 5
Coyuchi's cotton and linen sheeting is GOTS certified, which bans formaldehyde and toxic dyes, and it is MADE SAFE certified. Note that its Cloud Soft line is finished with a bio based softener marketed as wrinkle resistant; choose the undyed GOTS lines if you prefer no applied finish.
Methodology note (page footer)
How we scan. Every figure on this page comes from the Throne Standard scan: we read the fibre composition off each live product on Coyuchi's own site, style by style, count one row per distinct style with colourways deduplicated, and categorise it by its literal fibre content. Plant fibre means organic cotton, cotton, linen and hemp; animal fibre means wool, down, alpaca, cashmere and silk; we do not count bamboo, Tencel or lyocell as natural. This scan covers Coyuchi's bedding and bed linen, including sheets, duvet covers, pillowcases, shams, quilts, comforters, bed blankets and duvet inserts, and excludes decorative throws, bath and apparel. 17 styles whose composition was not stated on the page are excluded from the percentages.

How it was read
Throne identifies the eligible textile products in Coyuchi's catalogue, inspects each product for published material evidence and requires at least 20 scoreable textile SKUs before publishing a brand score. The score uses only products with enough published material information to classify. Brand non-disclosure and technical read failures are reported separately. Non-textile products are excluded rather than counted as a pass or a fail.
