Make the Ethical Choice - Organic bamboo Bed Linen
In case you are worried about Giant Pandas. Bamboo textiles are made of Moso Bamboo– not the type of Bamboo that Pandas eat.
Our Bamboo is grown Organically without using any pesticides or fertilizers as the plants natural antifungal and antibacterial agent - “Bamboo Kun” means it is seldom attacked by pests or pathogens.
The yield from an acre of bamboo is 10 times greater than the yield you get from cotton. In an age where land use is under enormous pressure this is hugely significant.
In cultivation Bamboo absorbs more CO2 and produces 35% more oxygen than an equivalent area of trees. As bamboo fabric becomes more popular it means more bamboo plantations. More Bamboo means Less greenhouse gas and Less Global warming.
Bamboo is in fact a very fast growing grass and can be harvested every 3 or 4 years and then renews itself without need for replanting. It spreads rapidly across large areas. It can be planted on hill slopes where nothing else is viable and encourages soil stability.
It is a fully sustainable crop. In its cultivation it will grow with normal rainfall whereas Cotton requires substantial irrigation.
Bamboo Fabric is Hypoallergenic and biodegradable.
After years of use, the sheets can be composted and completely returned to the earth.
The growing of our Bamboo is certified with OCIA International Organic Certification. The production of the bamboo fibre is manufactured under ISO 14001 Environmental Management Systems. Our Bamboo Fabric meets the international standard - OEKO – Tex Standard 100 .
