Bamboo
Bamboo fiber is made by pulping the grass until it separates into thin threads of fiber, which can be spun for weaving into cloth. Bamboo fiber resembles cotton in its un-spun form, a puffball of light, airy fibers.
Sustainable
Bamboo is one of the fastest growing plants on the planet, making it a high yield renewable resource. It can be selectively harvested annually and is capable of complete regeneration without need to replant. It consumes carbon dioxide and, because bamboo forests are so dense, returns 30% more oxygen to the atmosphere than trees. It takes much less energy and water to grow and sustain than other plants used for fiber production. Bamboo plantations require very little maintenance. Bamboo can also be grown without pesticides or chemicals because of its own antibacterial agent. Our Bamboo products are made by OEKO TEX Certified yarns.
Allergy Reduced
Bamboo’s organic and naturally smooth fiber propserties are non-irritating to the skin, making it ideal for people with skin sensitivities or other allergies.
Thermo Regulating
The nature of bamboo fiber means that it helps ensure you are warm in the winter and cool in the summer. Bamboo clothing also has excellent wicking properties, making it ideal for warm summer days.
Absorbs Moisture
A cross-section of bamboo fiber reveals various micro-holes, allowing bamboo cloth to have superior absorption. This allows bamboo cloth to absorb and evaporate human sweat rapidly. Bamboo fiber is four times more absorbent than cotton.
Breathable
The qualities of bamboo fiber account for it’s breathability. Clothing made of bamboo resists clinging during hot weather or exercise.
Antibacterial
Bamboo fabric contains a naturally occurring antimicrobial agent, that prevents bacteria from cultivating on it, which means it helps keep you odor free.
UV Protective
Bamboo naturally provides added protection against the sun’s harmful UV rays.
