Why Bamboo?
When we first founded Outdoor Wipes, we considered a number of fabric options for our wipes. As avid outdoor enthusiasts and nature lovers, it was important that we chose a fabric that was renewable and completely biodegradable. That's why we chose Bamboo.
Simply put bamboo is the fastest growing plant in the world. It can grow 91cm (35 inches) per day and it has the Guiness World Record to prove it! In addition:
-
Bamboo requires a third of the water that cotton requires to grow
-
One acre of bamboo will yield 10 times more crop than one acre of cotton
-
Bamboo is grown without pesticides and is naturally resistant to insects and infectious bacteria.
-
Bamboo fibres are stronger and more resilient than most other fibres
-
Bamboo is 100% biodegradable, compostable, renewable and sustainable.
