Bamboo Soft - Bamboo is incredibly soft
Be completely overcome by the WOWfactor. Our yarn is naturally supersoft.How may times have we heard "No way, that isn't bamboo".

Bamboo Smooth - Smooth and luxuriously comfortable
At a microscopic level, bamboo fibre has a round and smooth surface. Because of this, it’s very smooth and sits perfectly next to the skin. Petroleum based synthetic fibres can sometimes irritate the skin and they can start to smell really quickly!

Bamboo Dry - Wicks away moisture keeping you comfortable and dry.
Bamboo is the fastest growing plant in the world, mainly because it has extraordinary waterabsorbency which helps it to grow fast. In fabric form it retains this unique, remarkable property. It’s 3-4 times more absorbent than cotton. It 'wicks' away moisture from the body which then evaporates, keeping you - naturally - drier and more comfortable. When combined with 'Bamboo Thermo-control' qualities, you have an incredibly flexible addition to yourwardrobe.

Bamboo Cool - Keep cool in warm weather

Bamboo is remarkably breathable. In the heat, bamboo is naturally cool to the touch and this property is maintained in its fabric form. The cross-section of the bamboo fibre is filled with various micro-gaps and micro-holes. It has much better moisture absorption and ventilation. With this unparalleled micro-structure, bamboo clothing can - to a point, obviously - absorb and evaporate human sweat. As such, bamboo clothing makes people feel cooler and more comfortable in hot weather. It never sticks to the skin. It's also very warm in cold weather, because of the same micro structure.

Bamboo Fresh - Antibacterial function
Bamboo is antibacterial, antifungal and anti-static. In the wild, bamboo thrives naturally without using any pesticides or fertilisers. It is seldom eaten by pests or infected by pathogens. Why? Scientists found that bamboo owns a unique anti-bacteria and bacteriostasis bio-agent named "bamboo kun". This substance bonds tightly with bamboo cellulose molecules during the normal process of bamboo fibre growth. This natural feature is retained in fabric form.

Bamboo clothing has particular natural anti-bacterial functions, bacteriostasis and deodorization value. Its test results show over 70% death rate after bacteria was incubated on bamboo fibre fabric. In addition, tests by the Japanese Textile Inspection Association found that, even after fifty times of washing, bamboo fabric still possessed these functions.
Therefore all our products are guaranteed to be odour resistant, staying fresher for longer, because the fabric – naturally - stops bacteria from spreading. As a result, they’re also healthier and more hygienic.
Bamboo clothing’s natural anti-bacteria function differs greatly from that of man-made chemical antimicrobial fabrics, which often tend to cause skin problems.

Bamboo Strength - Hardwearing and durable
Repeated tests show that our cloth is strong and durable, and also that bamboo fibre has a high abrasion-proof capacity and also tenacity. The same bamboo used for scaffolding to build skyscrapers in Hong Kong was always going to be strong!

Bamboo Kindness - For sensitive or allergy prone skin

Lack of harsh chemical treatments which can irritate skin
Fibre is smooth and round, so is a non-irritant
Naturally occurring, antibacterial ‘bamboo kun’ resists the spread of bacteria on the skin without any adverse affects, such as abrasion or irritation.
