Bamboo Towels and Bedding – Upgrade Your Home with Natural Softness

Short answer: Bamboo viscose makes the biggest difference where the fabric lies against the skin for a long time: the towel after a shower, the sheet at night and the nightwear in between. The material absorbs moisture, releases it again quickly and stays fresh longer than cotton. That is why the home is the next place to change after underwear.

Towels that dry themselves

A cotton towel absorbs well but releases the moisture slowly, and in a bathroom without good ventilation that means the towel is still damp the next morning. It is that moisture which turns into the musty smell. Bamboo viscose absorbs at least as much but gives the moisture up again faster, so the towel dries between two showers instead of lying clammy. The surface is also smoother, which you notice on the face and on skin after a day in the sun. See bamboo towels for the sizes we carry.

Bedding and the moisture of the night

The body gives off moisture all night, even when you are not sweating. In cotton that moisture stays in the sheet, which is why you wake up clammy under the duvet without ever having felt hot. Bamboo viscose moves the moisture away from the skin and releases it into the air, so the bed feels dry again quickly. The fabric is smooth and cool to the touch, which helps if you find it hard to fall asleep when you are warm. The whole range sits under bamboo bedding, where colours and sizes are listed on every item.

The right measurements for a single bed

A single bed is not one measurement. Most Scandinavian single duvets are either 140x200 or 140x220 centimetres, and the twenty centimetre difference is clearly noticeable: a cover that is too short rides up at the feet all night. Measure the duvet before you order, not the bed. For the short measurement the sets sit under bamboo single bedding 140x200, and for the long one under bamboo single bedding 140x220 cm. If in doubt, take the measurement sewn into your current duvet.

The nightwear in between

Bedding only works together with what you wear. Cotton nightwear under a bamboo duvet still holds the moisture where the fabric touches the skin. Thin bamboo nightwear does the opposite and passes the moisture on, and that is especially noticeable if you wake up warm at night. For women the styles sit under bamboo nightwear for women and for men under bamboo nightwear for men. Choose loose rather than close fitting, so the fabric can work.

The hours before bed

The evening at home is the stretch where most people stay in whatever they wore all day, and that is rarely the most comfortable option. A set for home use in the same quality as the rest costs little and usually becomes the most worn thing in the wardrobe. The range for the whole home sits under bamboo homewear, and the longer styles for women under bamboo loungewear for women. Wash everything at thirty degrees without softener, and both towels and bedding keep their absorbency.
