Is bamboo bedding worth it?

We’re so glad you asked, because the answer is a resounding yes! One hundred per cent, no hesitation, yes. Like, this-will-change-your-sleeping-life yes.

Bamboo yarn is spun from fibres of the fast-growing bamboo plant. The yarn is processed to create a fine thread which is woven into the fabric we have come to know and appreciate as a superior bedding choice.

Trends come and go, but bamboo bedding is with us to stay thanks to the many benefits that relate not only to aesthetics, but hygiene, longevity, comfort and convenience.

Let’s look at that in some more detail.

Five reasons to fall in love with bamboo bedding. ✨

Bamboo sheets are extremely durable thanks to the naturally longer fibres of the bamboo plant. Other fabrics are typically woven with shorter fibres meaning they are more likely to pill and tear over time. Of course, the longevity of your bamboo sheets also relies on you looking after them well. That is, machine wash in cold water on a gentle cycle (no fabric softener), and line dry if you can, or tumble dry on low heat and speed.

2. Bedding that regulates temperature.

Bamboo fabric is wonderfully breathable. This is great news for those couples that comprise one hot sleeper and one cold sleeper, or those who suffer from night sweats. Relief! Not only that, but bamboo sheets will help you stay cool on hot summer nights and cosy through winter’s chill.

3. Hypoallergenic and antibacterial.

Do you suffer from allergies? Bamboo sheets are antibacterial and hypoallergenic thanks to their incredible moisture-absorbance. We’re talking four times more absorbent than cotton. All the nasties that tend to cause allergy flare-ups are attracted to moisture: dust mites, germs, mold. Bamboo keeps your sleeping environment dry and might be just what you need to ward off the sniffles.
