The Best Sleep Ever With Sustainable Bed Linen

I had the best sleep in two weeks with my new set of sustainable bed linen made of bamboo! I usually use good quality cotton bed sheets and while they don’t come cheap, they are also not environmentally sustainable. According to this article in the WWF website, Cotton unfortunately is a big cause of deforestation. Cotton trees also demand alot of pesticides and water for irrigation.

I came across Bamboa Home, this brand of bed linen made with 100% bamboo fiber. I am absolutely in love with my new sheets! They are as soft as silk and I must admit I can sleep better knowing I am not harming mother Earth.

I can’t get enough of my soft sheets! They are actually more luxurious in feel than my hotel linen set. I also got some bath towels made of bamboo!

Why choose bamboo fabric?

Bamboo fabric is hypoallergenic.

Bamboo fabric is anti-bacterial.

It is three times more absorbent than cotton.

It feels like silk and has a cooling effect.

It is three times more durable than cotton.

It is a sustainable eco- friendly option.

How is bamboo a sustainable option?

Bamboo, though mistaken for a tree is actually grass. There are over 1000 different species growing in different continents except Europe. It is actually the fastest growing plant on Earth! By using products made from bamboo, we can be sure that we are choosing the viable option to help save our planet. Bamboa Home also supports local artisans and by doing so alleviates poverty in rural areas.

“Bamboo and rattan are integral to the lives of up to 1.5 billion people, roughly a quarter of the present world population. For many of them life is a constant struggle against poverty and deprivation.

Bamboo and rattan can provide them with a sustainable way out of poverty, a stable source of income for a growing range of micro, small and medium-sized enterprises.

Bamboa’s mission is to provide beautiful products that help rural communities, support local artisans and encourage the use of a sustainable resource.” says Julia Washbourne, founder of Bamboa Home.

How to Care for Bamboo Linen

Bamboo linen is actually fuss free and easy to handle. It is recommended that washing be done at a maximum of 40 degrees Celsius. Never use fabric softener or bleach and use baking soda instead. You may fluff dry your linen in a dryer at low temperature and take it out as soon as it is done to minimize wrinkles. Ironing in allowed if you use the silk setting. Never use steam when you iron.
