Textiles

Bambu use a selection of original and eco-friendly textiles in their range.

Their hemp denim is a blend of hemp and certified organic cotton (60/40). It is durable, wonderfully soft and absorbent, and improves with wear.

Hemp has been cultivated for industrial purposes for over 12,000 years. It is a very robust plant and grows very quickly in diverse soil conditions. It can be ready for harvest in approximately 100 days, making it a sustainable super crop.

Bambu’s hemp is grown without herbicides or pesticides. Hemp naturally suppresses  the growth of harmful bacteria and fungi. It is also mildew resistant and anti-microbial, making it an excellent fibre for use in the kitchen and on the table.

Bambu's newest material is an organic cotton with a smart stripe print which is also know as Hickory Cloth. This Organic Stripe is a strong fabric of twill construction made of certified organic cotton. From the 1920’s to the 1950’s it was chiefly used for the manufacturing of work clothes so has a long heritage.

As expected bambu use top-quality components in their textile products including YKK zippers.
