Benefits of Bamboo
At Boody, we’ve learned that bamboo is a miracle fibre. Naturally eco-friendly, wonderful to wear, resilient, superbly soft and healthy for even the most sensitive skin – in our opinion it outruns all traditional and new fibres, natural and synthetic. That’s why we’re so proud of the Boody range.
THE CHOICE FOR SUSTAINABILITY
Grown organically
No pesticides. No insecticides. No fertilisers.
Grown without artificial irrigation
Producing commercial harvests of bamboo requires only rainwater. What’s more, all water used in the production process is recycled and re-used.
Improving air quality
Bamboo plantations produce 30% more oxygen than an equivalent area of trees and absorb more carbon dioxide and greenhouse gases.
Fast growing, regenerating
The fastest growing woody plant in the world, some species of bamboo shoot up as much as one metre a day! New stems are able to be harvested again and again.
THE CHOICE FOR HEALTH
Anti-bacterial & anti-fungal
Bamboo contains an anti-bacterial and anti-fungal bio-agent which is retained through the process of fabrication and after washing many, many times. This property also makes Boody garments odour-resistant.
Hypo-allergenic
Particularly suitable for eczema suffers and those with extra sensitive skin.
Breathable & moisture-wicking
The structure of the bamboo fibres contains micro-gaps, which provide ventilation and pull moisture away from the body, allowing the skin to breathe.
THE CHOICE FOR COMFORT
Silky soft
Light, luxuriously soft and gentle on the skin, bamboo is a dream to wear.
Thermo-regulating
Cosy in winter, cool in summer, Boody garments provide warmth without bulk.
Anti-static
A neutral charge prevents static build-up, preventing clinging.
