Bamboo fibre has many excellent properties that make it ideal for processing into textiles. Bamboo fibre fabric is made from bamboo pulp fibre. It is characterized by having good hydrophilic properties, excellent permeability, soft feel, easiness to straighten and dye and splendid colour effect of pigmentation. What people find most surprising is that bamboo fabric is exceptionally soft and light, almost silky in feel. This makes it breathable and cool to wear. It is also incredibly hydrophilic, absorbing more water than other conventional fibres such as cotton and polyester. Bamboo is also very sustainable to grow as it does not require the use of pesticides and grows very quickly in favourable conditions. Bamboo fabric may have an anti-bacterial property that is maintained in fabric, meaning that bamboo fabric does not require the use of chemical antibacterial agents. Bamboo fabric is more antistatic than other types of fabric and also tends to perform better when it comes to odours it has a natural deodorising property. Bamboo fibre has a thinness and whiteness degree close to normal finely bleached viscose and has a strong durability, stability and tenacity. It stands abrasion and possesses the qualities that make it perfect to spin. The yarn and cloth made by bamboo fibre are labelled first-class quality in all aspects of quality standards. Cloth made by the mixed texture of bamboo fibre and cotton or other raw materials also boasts the same superior property. Towel and bathrobe made of bamboo fibre have a soft and comfortable feel and a special lustre. When dyed, it is sparkling and beautiful. It has the strength of steel. It's a favourite of panda bears. And now, it is also a soft and beautiful fabric similar to rayon. This durable material has a natural sheen and inherent anti-microbial properties to help keep you odour free. Bamboo is an incredibly sustainable resource, since it's fast-growing and resilient. Bamboo is actually not a wood, it's a grass. Unlike a tree, which can take decades to grow to maturity, bamboo is ready to harvest within 4 to 5 years. Bamboo fabric has been growing in popularity because it has many unique properties and is more sustainable than most textile fibres. To make bamboo fibre, bamboo is heavily pulped until it separates into thin component threads of fibre, which can be spun and dyed for weaving into cloth.
