Why use bamboo?

Bamboo is one of the world’s most prolific and fastest-growing plants, and is able to reach maturity in about four years, compared to the typical 25 to 70 years for most commercial tree species. Bamboo is nature’s most sustainable resource, is grown without pesticides or chemicals, is 100% biodegradable, and naturally regenerative. Bamboo is actually a tropical grass, with an extensive root system that sends out an average of four to six new shoots per year, naturally replenishing itself and growing to heights of 60 feet or more. Some bamboo species can grow up to 18 inches per day and can be harvested every 3 to 4 years.

Bamboo is planted and grown on family-owned farms that have been in agricultural use for generations. The kind of bamboo used for Clearly Herbal Wipes is not the same kind of bamboo eaten by panda bears and none of the fibre comes from tropical forests.

Unlike other anti-microbial fabrics, which require a chemical treatment; bamboo fabric is naturally anti-microbial and requires no harmful chemicals. It contains an agent, “bamboo kun”, that prevents bacteria from cultivating on it.

Cloth made from bamboo fibre is 100% natural and made through a high-tech process without the addition of any chemical additives. It is 100% biodegradable and will be naturally broken down in soil by micro-organisms and sunshine. Qty: 60 wipes per packet. 12 packets per carton.
