Bamboo is highly adaptable and capable of growing almost anywhere on earth, from the ideal conditions of a hot, humid jungle to the dry, dusty heat of a desert – and even in the midst of cold, wet rains. Its only limitations are excessive periods of freezing weather.
Thanks to this incredible adaptability, bamboo is widely available for human use. Under ideal conditions, bamboo can grow at a rate of up to five feet per year, making it the world's fastest-growing plant and an abundant, easily renewable material.
There are several reasons why organic bamboo fabric has seen a boom in recent times, especially in the bedding industry. Not only is it exceptionally comfortable, but it also remains soft to the touch long after purchase.
Other advantages of bamboo bedding:
- Hypoallergenic
Bamboo fabric can provide relief for people with allergies. Those who find that they are affected by dust mites, pet dander or other common allergens will be able to use bamboo fabric without any problems. This fabric is generally considered a very hygienic bedding material. In addition to being hypoallergenic, it is also antibacterial and antifungal. Very few substances can survive naturally in bamboo, which is why it is also great for use in medical or sensitive environments.
- Breathable
Bamboo bedding provides excellent temperature regulation. Furthermore, the fabric is highly breathable, which removes moisture from the skin, preventing overheating in summer and keeping you warm in winter.
- Durable
Bamboo is a solid and strong substance, which is why it is often used in the scaffolding and construction industries. When made into bamboo fabric and bedding, the fabric maintains its strength and durability and can easily withstand daily wear and tear.
- Renewable
Bamboo is an exceptionally renewable resource and one of the most environmentally friendly materials available, naturally regenerating once harvested (as long as the roots remain intact). This makes bamboo bedding a sustainable and eco-friendly choice.
Furthermore, bamboo is completely biodegradable, and releases around 35% more oxygen into the atmosphere than the equivalent volume of common trees.
Bed linen made from bamboo is still new on the market and in our homes, however, it is a fabric that will certainly win everyone's love, mainly due to its resistance and lightness.
Have we already mentioned that our bamboo sets, thanks to their special washing, do not need to be ironed? The soft and natural marks they have at the end of the wash give them a relaxed but luxurious look.
