Bamboo pillows

Bamboo is a tropical plant, from which even in ancient China, began to make paper for papyri. A few years ago there was a technology for the production of fiber from its stems. The fiber from the bamboo stem is so unique, that nothing can compare with him. It is softer than cotton and resembles silk or cashmere in quality.

Bamboo has high antibacterial properties. Scientists have discovered in the natural composition of the bamboo component called "Bamboo kun", which kills from 70% to 90% of disease-causing bacteria. Such properties are not possessed by any other natural canvas in the world.

Also in cushions made of bamboo dust mites do not start. For people with allergies and asthma, bamboo cushions will be the most appropriate choice.

At the moment, bamboo pillows produceabroad and in Russia. Yarn for their production is imported from Germany and China. It is worth paying attention to the marking of the product when buying. Thus, the marking "bamboo linen"(The so-called" bamboo flax ") indicates that the pillow was made abroad and contains a natural bamboo cloth produced by a mechanical method.

Cloth for covers is made of a mixture of polyester (65%) and bamboo (35%). Also, there are possible variants of a mixture of bamboo, cotton and satin in various proportions.

For the pillow filler, bamboo viscose or bamboo silk is used. Accordingly, they are labeled "bamboo viscose"And"bamboo rayon". To reduce the price of pillows, manufacturers add polyester fiber to bamboo in a ratio of 1: 1.

Bamboo fabric is made not only with bamboo cushions, but also towels, blankets and sheets. Bamboo fiber is very durable and longwear out. So, bamboo pillows and blankets can be washed up to 500 times, and still they will have their original shape and color.
