Why We Use Bamboo

What Makes Us Better.

We design everyday essentials to last. That means we only invest in quality fabrics and we only design with simplicity and function in mind. Organically-grown bamboo is highly breathable, comfy and soft; making it perfect for garments that sit close to the skin like underwear, socks and everyday basics.

Feeling Comfortable

Silky Soft

Organically-grown bamboo is soft, like super soft. It will feel light and gentle on your skin.

Thermoregulating

Regulates to you - feel warm on winter days and cool when it's hot. Bamboo fibre is naturally breathable because of its structure.

Anti-static

A neutral charge prevents static build-up, preventing clinging.

Did You Know?

Bamboo fibre gets softer and softer as it's washed - bamboo fibres line up, rather than move out of position.

Bamboo fibre smoothly falls into place in its weave, leaving gaps open for air to flow freely.

Bamboo fibre is naturally absorbent and speedily wicks away moisture - up to four times faster than cotton.

Happy and Healthy

Anti-bacterial &
anti-fungal

Bamboo contains an anti-bacterial and anti-fungal bio-agent which is retained through the process of fabrication and after washing. This property also makes Boody garments odour-resistant.

Hypoallergenic

Particularly suitable for eczema sufferers and those with extra sensitive skin.

Breathable & moisture-wicking

The structure of the bamboo fibres contains micro-gaps, which provide ventilation and evaporates moisture that causes bacteria to multiply.


UPF50+ sun protection

All Boody garments are made from a UPF50+ rated fabric that will protect you from ultraviolet (UV) damage.

Did You Know?

The bamboo weave regulates the temperature between your body and the air, making you feel warmer when its cold.

The smooth bamboo strands do not snag against each other, and won't cause a blockage in the gaps of the weave. Breathe easy.

The evaporation, which naturally occurs, drives moisture to continually travel towards the surfaces of each bamboo fibre.

Sustainability Matters

Grown organically

No pesticides. No insecticides. No fertilisers. Bamboo is naturally organic and doesn’t require pesticides to enhance its growth.

No artificial irrigation

Producing harvests of bamboo requires only rainwater and all water used in the production process is recycled and reused.

Improving air quality

Bamboo plantations produce 30% more oxygen than an equivalent area of trees and absorb more carbon dioxide and greenhouse gases.

Fast growing, regenerating

Bamboo is the fastest growing and most versatile plant in the world, with some species of bamboo shooting up as much as one metre a day.

Did You Know?

New bamboo stems are able to be harvested repeatedly.

Bamboo is in fact a type of grass - a very fast growing and giant grass.

Bamboo has more than 2,000 uses around the world.
