Bamboo is one of the cottons, with a mechanical process of crushing the wooden part of the plant to break the cell walls. The natural fibers can be pressed into a loom and the result has the same feel as linen.

Bamboo clothing is suitable for the whole family, especially for children and children indoors, because in addition to being very comfortable and soft when they come in contact with the skin, they also have endless properties for the wearer.

The fiber used to make bamboo garments is considered one of the best available to date as it has almost cotton-like structures, and unlike other building materials, it is quite stable.

Extract the pulp of the bamboo cane

To make bamboo fabrics, it is necessary to extract sugarcane pulp, which is a type of renewable fiber cellulose purified by the process of hydrolysis-alkalinization. There are two processes for extracting fiber from a pulp, one is mechanical and the other is chemical. Of these two methods, the most natural is mechanical, as bamboo structures are retained in the fiber, while in chemical processes, the different agents used to extract the fiber destroy many or all of the beneficial bamboo structures. The fiber obtained in this way is called bamboo viscose rayon.

Bathing Bamboo

Washing the bamboo helps remove dirt. Depending on the quality of the pre-made scraping, it will affect the amount of water used, so, when more pollution is left, a larger amount of water will be needed.

Drying and Separation of Bamboo Fiber

Later, it will be dried and divided into sections of fiber accordingly, and then carried out brushing that will help remove the fibers and release the dust and the remaining natural adhesion. This will make the fiber softer and cleaner.

Immersion of Bamboo Fibers

Finally, decrude decomposition is performed, which makes the bamboo fiber softer. Once the desired fabric has been obtained, it is mixed and dyed.

Appearance and layouts:

The original bamboo fiber is similar to Ramie or Bast fibers in appearance and structure.

But bamboo fiber is much lighter than ramie fiber and has special and effective properties such as antibacterial, Anti UV, deodorant and germicide.

According to various studies, it has been acknowledged that bamboo fiber structures are better than bleached viscose. It has great durability, making it an ideal fabric for fashionable clothing where thin and lightweight fabric is required.

It has a unique biological and antibacterial agent called "Bamboo Kun". During the process of producing bamboo fiber, this substance is mixed with bamboo cellulose and naturally acts as an antibacterial and deodorant.

The Japan Textile Inspection Association has proven that bamboo fabric still has about 70% of antimicrobial properties after 50 baths.

Bamboo fiber has good spinning quality and the fabric or yarn made of this type of fiber is of good quality in terms of quality standards.

The fabric made of 100% bamboo pulp fiber is called bamboo fabric and has good penetration properties, soft touches, moisturizing and easy to recover, but also excellent dye.

It is a relatively new system with excellent natural habitats and when combined with other materials its properties increase.

Bamboo acts as a thermoregulator because of its breathability and new features. According to various studies, bamboo fabrics are 1-2 degrees cooler than regular clothing during the summer.

The bamboo plant is harvested every year and requires minimal initial costs. It can be planted by a farmer and foresters who are skilled at planting crops. A wood plant that grows very fast and has many applications instead of wood.

Bamboo has a very good effect against soil erosion and is used to reclaim soil. It can also be grown with other vegetables.

The bamboo plant itself is completely decaying and all parts of it are usable; Bamboo stems are used as building materials, their twigs and leaves are used for animal feed and branches in handicrafts.

Bamboo has the function of "Kun Bamboo" which acts as an anti-bacterial and antifungal agent and helps to make the fabric odorless.

It has a smooth silky quality. It also has ground-breaking properties and is stronger and less expensive than silk and cashmere.

A cloth made of bamboo requires minimal washing due to the area it loosens the soil and saves time, money, water and energy.

It acts as a heat regulator in the human body and its breathable structure keeps the fabric dry.

Ideal for people with sensitive skin who suffer from allergies, dermatitis and eczema.
