Advantages of using bamboo
- Bamboo grows rapidly and nautrally without any pesticides, herbisides or fertilizers, and improves soil quality by preventing water run-off and rebuilding eroded soil;
- Bamboo grows naturally, without the need for agricultural tending and large diesel exhaust-spewing tractors to plant seeds and cultivate the soil;
- Bamboo plantations are large factories for photosynthesis which reduces greenhouse gases - bamboo plants absorb about 5 times the amount of carbon dioxide and produces about 35% more oxygen than an equivalent stand of trees;
Properties of bamboo charcoal fabrics
- Fabric is soft, non-irritating and hypoallergenic because of the smooth and round structure of its fibres;
- Bamboo is naturally anti-bacterial and anti-fungal because of a unique bacteriostatis agent called "bamboo kun" which also helps bamboo resist harbouring adours. The bamboo kun stops odour-producing bacteria from growing and spreading in the cloth, allowing bamboo clothing to be more hygienic and to remain fresher smelling;
- Bamboo is highly absorbent and wicks water away from the body 3 to 4 times faster than cotton. In warm, humid and sweaty weather, bamboo clothing helps keep the wearer drier, cooler and more comfortable and doesn't stick to the skin;
- The fibre structure makes bamboo fabrics more breathable and thermal regulating than cotton, hemp. wool or synthetic fabrics;
- Fabric is naturally more wrinkle-resistant than cotton, and shrinkage during washing and drying is minimal;
- Fabrics absorb dyes faster and more throughly than cotton, modal and ciscose, with better colour clarity, and do not need to be mercerized to improve their lustre and dye-ablility.
