Bamboo and Sustainability
Why Bamboo?
π It grows rapidly and no chemicals are used in growing or harvesting bamboo, providing a cleaner and safer environment for farm workers.
π When harvested itβs simply cut, removed, and re-grows from the base, leaving the ground undisturbed which reduces soil erosion.
π It produces more oxygen than any equivalent stand of trees.
π It gives farmers a more sustainable source of income that isnβt reliant on the cost of chemicals and machinery needed to plant, maintain and harvest other yearly crops, such as cotton.
The Bamboozld Difference
𧦠All the bamboo fibres Bamboozld use are produced using the Lyocell Method under the REACH and OEKO-TEC 100 Standards used across the textile industry.
𧦠Since 2014, Bamboozld has worked with the same family-run businesses to produce our yarn, fabric and finished goods. Weβve worked side-by-side with the same sock factory β watching them grow from a small family operation in a shed, to a business that employs over 100 people and operates under BSCI accreditation. They pay above awards wages with clean and safe working conditions.
