Something luxuriously eco friendly that costs less in the long run



Often eco friendly and healthy go hand in hand. The long term benefits that bamboo clothing brings to your health is certainly unbeatable and is preferred by many with sensitive skin.

The cost of keeping clothes made from bamboo fabric clean is lower compared to standard cotton clothes. Bamboo clothes amazingly require no detergent or softener, just a warm wash unless heavily soiled. Bamboo is naturally breathable, heat regulating (keeps your warm in winter and cool in summer) and anti-bacterial therefore keeping fresher for much longer than cotton. Bamboo being naturally hypoallergenic is kinder to sensitive skin and often preferred by people with skin allergies like ezcema.

• Bamboo saves money. Bamboo requires a low temperature wash and can be left to hang dry again saving you money on energy bills, 50% in fact on drying alone. Leaving you the extra cash to go towards shopping for other eco friendly products.

• Bamboo saves more money. Bamboo absorbs 2 - 3 times as much as cotton so a large towel can be replaced with a smaller towel, saving on washing and drying bills.

• Healthy to skin. Discover the remarkable characteristics of bamboo. Bamboo yarn is softer than normal cotton and has a natural sheen that if made into towels helps enhance your bathroom décor. It also has amazing antibacterial qualities, which make bamboo dressing gowns hygienically ideal for bathroom environments.

• Eco friendly. Bamboo is one of the world’s fastest growing plants. It is an eco friendly resource. Bamboo’s microscopic holes quickly absorb water and wicks away moisture from the skin. Amazingly, bamboo is actually a grass, not a tree and creates more oxygen and less carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, great for reducing your carbon footprint.
