bamboo

Bamboo is a natural product with unique properties that distinguish it from cotton or microfiber. We've listed below what makes bamboo so special.

Bamboo is super soft

Bamboo fibers are incredibly soft, comparable to silk thread. This makes bamboo underwear feel incredibly soft and drape smoothly against the skin.

Antibacterial and hypoallergenic

Bamboo fibers have a round cross-section, which reduces friction and allows for much smoother yarns. This makes bamboo underwear feel softer. Because bamboo fiber is also naturally antibacterial and antifungal, it doesn't easily become odorous, even from sweat. Bamboo is therefore ideal for use in menstrual underwear, and these properties also make it very pleasant for people with sensitive skin or allergies.

Durable

Bamboo is a crop that grows very quickly, can grow anywhere, and requires much less water. It can therefore be cultivated easily and quickly. Compared to cotton, bamboo requires little to no pesticides for its growth. An additional advantage of its rapid growth combined with little water is that bamboo thrives in relatively poor soil, allowing it to be used for bamboo production, eliminating the need for scarce, rich agricultural land. Because of all these advantages, bamboo yields approximately 10 times more per square meter than cotton, and bamboo absorbs 35% more CO2 than other plants.A sustainable alternativeso.

Bamboo keeps the skin dry

Bamboo underwear also absorbs moisture better, keeping it drier longer. Bamboo fibers can absorb up to three times as much moisture as cotton. Its unique hollow structure also allows moisture to evaporate more quickly, resulting in faster drying.

Bamboo can regulate heat

The open structure of the bamboo fiber makes the underwear heat-regulating, meaning it stays cool in summer and comfortably warm in winter.
