Bamboo bedding helps to regulate the body’s temperature and is three times more absorbent than cotton. This makes it an ideal solution for people that suffer from night sweat. It also offers relief to the many women that suffer from menopausal symptoms.
Bamboo naturally inhibits bacterial growth. Which in turn eliminates damp or musty odours and mould growth which are the result of antimicrobial activity. Bamboo repels dust (bed) mites and in addition to its antibacterial properties, it is also antimicrobial, hypoallergenic, and anti-static.

- Bamboo, being a 100% natural product, is extremely absorbent and wicks away up to 40% more moisture than cotton does from the skin, therefore it will absorb any face creams or hair products etc. which may result in temporary discolouration which should go when washed. Washing at a higher temperature, with the help of a stain remover is recommended in this case.

What Is Fabric Pilling?
Fabric pilling is the term for loose strands or balls of fibre that form on a piece of fabric. You’ve probably noticed these little bits of fabric on pillows, rugs, and furniture in your home.
Pilling is a common occurrence in most households. It’s not a fabric defect or fault from the manufacturer.
What Causes Fabric Pilling?
When fabric fibres become loose, they move around when we sit or brush up against them. The friction from people rubbing up against the fabric causes loose fibres to twist together into small balls.
Your washing machine also causes friction. This is why you’ll see fabric pills on towels, t-shirts, and sweaters as well as your bedding.
Pilling is completely normal and will go away once the excess loose fibres are gone. It doesn’t affect the durability or functionality of the fabric.
