If you are yet to experience the benefits of bamboo throws, here are some reasons to make the change today and switch to sustainable earth-loving bamboo.
Bamboo is stronger and lasts longer than cotton
Bamboo is a very strong raw material. Bamboo products last 3 times longer than similar cotton products. Due to the durability of bamboo the blankets don’t lose their appealing softness, even after many washes, believe it or not, they actually get softer.
Bamboo is extremely soft
As durable as bamboo is, it can actually be woven into one of the softest and most comfortable fabrics on earth.
Bamboo is safe and hygenic
Bamboo kun is found in bamboo fibre and is an antimicrobial bio-agent which gives bamboo its natural antibacterial properties. These properties prevent bacteria growing on bamboo products making bamboo the perfect plant for naturally hygienic products such as bamboo throws, keeping them fresher for longer.
Bamboo is thermo-regulating
The thermal regulating qualities of bamboo throws allow you to stay cooler in summer and warmer in winter, making bamboo throws the perfect choice all year round. The throws are warm yet retain breathability, allowing them to adjust to your body’s temperature needs.
Bamboo is eco-friendly
Bamboo is one of the fastest growing natural resources on the planet. Bamboo is self sufficient and does not require irrigation or fertilisers and grows naturally pesticide free due to its innate antimicrobial and insect repellent properties. Bamboo doesn’t require replanting after harvesting because its vast root network continually sprouts new stems. Bamboo forests have a negative carbon footprint, producing even more oxygen than trees.
Bamboo Throw Care
We recommend you use gentle washing liquids or powders as they guarantee to be kind to your throws. We recommend some of the natural ones found at your local supermarket such as the Earth Choice Wool & Delicates, it has a great eucalyptus base and is easy on the wallet. Refrain from using fabric softeners as they are not needed or recommended. We recommend gentle machine cool wash, wash separately to avoid zippers, hooks and abrasive fabrics and line dry out of direct sunlight to maintain the silky soft feel and beautiful lustre. Some of our customers like to dry-clean to ensure that they maintain their wonderful silky soft feel. For this we recommend using a GreenEarth Cleaning dry cleaner to ensure no toxic chemicals are used.
Also available in Charcoal, Sky Grey, Dusty Pink, Ivory.
