And if you were after more detail, we engaged Green Story to find out how our fabrics compare to conventional materials - see this report.
Good for the Planet
Organically grown
No pesticides. no insecticides. No fertilisers. Bamboo is naturally organic and doesn't require pesticides to enhance its growth.
Consumes less water
Bamboo is self-sufficient and requires no irrigation. All water used in the production process is recycled. That's 1/3 the amount of water to grow vs. cotton!
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
Bamboo is the fastest-growing and most versatile plant in the world, with some species of bamboo shooting up as much as one metre a day!
Good for You
Eternal Softness
Bamboo viscose gets softer with every wash. As the fibres relax and settle, they create a lasting, soft texture.
Breathable & moisture-wicking
The structure of the bamboo fibres contains micro-gaps, which provide ventilation and evaporates moisture; keeping you dry and fresh throughout the day.
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. Sounds good... and smells good.
UPF50+ Sun protection
All Boody garments are made from a UPF50+ rated fabric to protect yourself from ultraviolet (UV) damage. Layer up!
