Why Bamboo?
Why we use bamboo
Bamboo is a miracle fibre. Naturally eco-friendly, wonderful to wear, resilient, superbly soft and healthy for even the most sensitive skin – in our opinion it outruns all traditional and new fibres, natural and synthetic.
The Choice for Sustainability
No Artificial Irrigation
Producing commercial harvests of bamboo requires only rainwater. What’s more, all water used in the production process is recycled and re-used.
Improves Air Quality
Bamboo plantations produce 30% more oxygen than an equivalent area of trees and absorb more carbon dioxide and greenhouse gases.
Fast Growing, Regenerating
The fastest growing woody plant in the world, some species of bamboo shoot up as much as 1m a day! New stems are able to be harvested again & again.
Grown Organically
No pesticides. No insecticides. No fertilisers.
The Choice for Health
Breathable & Moisture-Wicking
The structure of the bamboo fibres contains micro-gaps, which provide ventilation and pull moisture away from the body, allowing the skin to breathe.
Anti-Bacterial & Anti-Fungal
Bamboo contains an anti-bacterial and anti-fungal bio-agent which is retained through the process of fabrication and after washing many times. This property makes body garments odour-resistant.
Hypo-Allergic Fibre
Particularly suitable for eczema suffers and those with extra sensitive skin.
The Choice for Comfort
Silky Soft
Light, luxuriously soft and gentle on the skin, bamboo is a dream to wear.
Thermo-Regulating
Cosy in winter, cool in summer, body garments provide warmth without bulk.
Anti-Static
A neutral charge prevents static build-up, preventing clinging.
