Why bamboo

The Remarkable Properties of Bamboo Rayon

Bamboo rayon is rapidly gaining popularity among both traditional and environmentally conscious designers and consumers — and for good reason. It combines natural performance, luxury, and sustainability in a single textile solution.

Luxurious Feel with Practical Benefits

Bamboo fabric has a natural sheen and silky softness that rivals silk in appearance and comfort, yet it is significantly more durable and affordable. It drapes beautifully and is easy to care for — machine washable and dryer-friendly, making it ideal for everyday wear and use.

Thanks to the smooth, round structure of bamboo fibres, the fabric is exceptionally soft, breathable, and non-irritating, even for those with sensitive skin. It is also considered hypoallergenic, offering a gentle and comfortable option for a wide range of users. In rare cases, chemical sensitivities may occur, though these are more likely due to additives used in manufacturing, not the bamboo itself.

Natural Antibacterial & Odour Resistance

One of bamboo rayon’s most impressive features is its natural antibacterial and antifungal properties. These benefits are attributed to a unique bio-agent found in bamboo plants known as “bamboo kun” (or kunh), which resists the growth of odor-causing bacteria. As a result, bamboo fabrics stay fresher longer and are naturally more hygienic.

Superior Moisture Management & Comfort

Bamboo fabric is highly absorbent, wicking moisture away from the body three to four times faster than cotton. In warm, humid conditions, this means cooler, drier, and more comfortable clothing that won’t cling to the skin. The breathable structure of bamboo fibres also supports thermal regulation, making it a versatile fabric for all seasons.

Sustainable by Nature

Bamboo is not only beneficial in its end use — it is a highly renewable, eco-friendly resource with minimal environmental impact:

Bamboo is an exceptionally sustainable and environmentally friendly resource, making it ideal for eco-conscious textile production. It grows rapidly and regenerates naturally without the use of pesticides, herbicides, or synthetic fertilizers. Bamboo thrives with minimal human intervention, requiring no intensive farming or heavy machinery, which helps lower carbon emissions and preserve natural ecosystems. Its deep root system plays a vital role in preventing soil erosion, improving soil health, and retaining water in surrounding environments. As a powerful agent of carbon sequestration, bamboo absorbs up to five times more CO₂ and releases 35% more oxygen than equivalent areas of trees, helping combat climate change. Furthermore, both mechanically and chemically processed bamboo fabrics are 100% biodegradable, breaking down without releasing harmful byproducts like methane. Importantly, there are no genetically modified variants of bamboo in use today, maintaining its status as a truly natural and sustainable crop.To ensure that the environmental benefits extend through the entire supply chain, eco-certifications such as Oeko-Tex® are essential, verifying that no harmful substances are used during manufacturing and finishing.

Bamboo the plant and also bamboo the fabric can rate high as an
environmentally friendly and renewable resource:-

  • Bamboo grows rapidly and naturally without any pesticides, herbicides or fertilizers.
  • Bamboo clothing (both mechanically and chemically manufactured) is 100% biodegradable and can be completely decomposed in the soil by micro-organisms and sunlight without decomposing into any pollutants such as methane gas which is commonly produced as a by-product of decomposition in landfills and dumps.
  • Growing bamboo improves soil quality and helps rebuild eroded soil. The extensive root system of bamboo holds soil together, prevents soil erosion, and retains water in the watershed.
  • Bamboo grows naturally without the need for agricultural tending and large diesel exhaust-spewing tractors to plant seeds and cultivate the soil.
  • Bamboo plantations are large factories for photosynthesis which reduces greenhouse gases. Bamboo plants absorb about 5 times the amount of carbon dioxide (a primary greenhouse gas) and produces about 35% more oxygen than an equivalent stand of trees.
  • Bamboo fabrics and clothing can be manufactured and produced without any chemical additives although eco-certification such as Oeko-Tex is necessary to insure that the manufacturing and finishing processes are healthy.
  • Currently, there are no known genetically modified organisms (GMO) variants of bamboo. Let's hope it stays that way.

BIODEGRADABLE

Bamboo fiber is biodegradable textile material. It can be 10% biodegraded in soil by micro organisms and sunshine. The decomposition process doesn't cause any pollution to environment.

REALISATION

Bamboo fibre boasts an exceptional realisation rate of 95–99%, meaning nearly all of the raw bamboo pulp is converted into usable fibre. This high yield not only reduces material waste but also makes the production process highly efficient and environmentally responsible. It stands out as one of the most resource-effective fibres in the textile industry.

SUSTAINABLE

Bamboo is one of the fastest-growing plants on the planet, capable of regenerating rapidly without the need for pesticides, herbicides, or synthetic fertilizers. Its extensive root system helps prevent soil erosion, enriches soil quality, and improves water retention, making bamboo cultivation both sustainable and beneficial to the environment.

NATURALLY ANTI-BACTERIA

Bamboo fiber has natural functions of anti-bacteria and deodorization. Even after fifty washes, bamboo fiber possesses excellent function of anti-bacteria. This natural anti-bacteria function of bamboo fiber doesn't cause any skin allergy.

BREATHABLE AND SOFT FEEL

Because the bamboo fiber is filled with various micro-gaps and micro holes, it has much better moisture absorption and ventilation. With this unparalleled micro structure, bamboo fiber apparel can absorb and evaporate humans sweat in seconds.

UTILIZATION

Products of bamboo fiber have soft feel, easiness to straighten & dye and splendid colour effect of pigmentation. They are also very friendly to skin & does not cause any irritation like those with chemical additives. It is also a new environmental friendly raw material that enjoys a splendid prospect of application. Thus it can be easily applied in manufacturing of underclothes, T-shirts, socks etc. Meanwhile cloth made of mixed texture of bamboo fiber, cotton, ramie, nylon, polyester or other raw materials also have the same superior properties.
