Why Bamboo is better for baby
Bamboo is one of the most sustainable of all natural fibres. Most other fabrics have to be chemically treated to wick properly. Besides being hypoallergenic, and anti-bacterial, bamboo is highly water absorbent, able to take up three times its weight in water.
Moreover, bamboo fibre retains the naturally occurring anti-fungal and anti-bacterial properties found in the raw material.
Beyond being silky soft for baby's skin and extra durable, bamboo fibres help many who experience allergic reactions to other natural fibres, such as wool or hemp. The bamboo fibre is naturally smooth and round without chemical treatment, meaning that there are no sharp spurs to irritate the delicate newborn skin. Bamboo is more flexible than cotton, offering superior durability, even after many washes.

Why is Bamboo better for the environment?
Bamboo is naturally grown, without assistance from man. Our bamboo is 100% sustainable.
Bamboo thrives naturally without using any pesticides or fertilizers due to the rapid growth and minimal exposure to crop diseases.
Bamboo fibre is 100% biodegradable, meaning it will ever end up on a landfill.
As the fastest growing plant in the world, bamboo grows to its maximum height in about 3 months. It spreads rapidly across large areas. Because of this, bamboo is known to improve soil quality in degraded and eroded areas of land where little else would survive.
As a grass, bamboo is cut, not uprooted, also helping soil stability.
The yield from a bamboo plantation is roughly 10 times that of cotton. In today’s times where land is scarce this is a huge advantage over cotton.
The water requirement for bamboo is minimal and it is largely sustained by waterfalls and rainfall as opposed to cotton crops that require extensive irrigation.
