Why Bamboo?
When you hear the word “bamboo” images of a woody plant on tropical islands may come to mind. Indeed, that is what the bamboo plant looks like, but it may surprise you to learn that bamboo has many commercial applications. Just few include its use in the timber, culinary, paper and textile industries. For textiles or fabrics, short bamboo fibers are broken down and rapidly spun, which produces soft, natural cloth.
Nothing is Softer Than Bamboo
Bamboo covers are soft material. Because bamboo is naturally harvested, it contains no pesticides or other chemicals. Cotton, on the other hand, is a farm-cultivated crop typically grown with the use of pesticides and other toxic agents.
Green consumers will love the many ecological benefits of bamboo. An incredibly renewable plant, it grows fast and has some of the highest per acre yields. It is drought resistant and requires no irrigation. In other words, it leaves behind virtually no ecological footprints.
Being environmentally friendly is important, but for a product to be effective, it also has to work for you. And that’s what makes bamboo covers even more interesting. Its fibers can wick moisture away from the skin. It naturally dries faster than other fabrics, and it resists odor retention.
