Why Bamboo
Rest assured, bamboo materials are here to take over the world, here is why.
Bamboo is one of the coolest plants around, with a diverse range of uses, from scaffolding and building houses for larger uses, but also paper, cutlery and yep, that’s right, clothing!
The material produced from bamboo has nothing but positives, that will help your day to day life, aiding to create a healthier version of you.
Here are the reasons why bamboo has health properties that make wearing it an advantage over other materials:
- Extraordinary wicking abilities
- Keeping sweat-free where it matters
- Most natural
- Antibacterial properties help to eliminate odours
- Helping our self conscious selves
- Natural hypoallergenic properties helping sensitive skin
- Aiding heat rash, eczema and dermatitis prone sufferers
- Helping everyone with sensitive skin types.
- All day comfort, so no unsightly adjustments
- Keeping you warm in the cold and cool in the hot, and not to mention how good it feels on your skin (almost like wearing nothing at all)
There are also environmental factors which make bamboo a more favourable and sustainable option, let us tell you why.
- We've all heard, “it’s like watching grass grow” but bamboo brings a whole new meaning. Some species can grow a metre per day during peak growth. WOW!
- It requires much less water to grow, a third less than most plants that exist.
- The use of pesticides, herbicides and harmful chemicals are not needed for bamboo to grow. It only needs rainwater and sunshine, all natural!
- Self-regeneration after harvest means we don’t need to clear lands and destroy habitats to cultivate this awesome plant, also this means we don’t have to clear land for agricultural purposes
- Every square metre of bamboo can absorb 267.2 kilos of CO2 per day, and is also able to produce 30% more oxygen than trees. “Don’t you just love bamboo!?”
