Bamboozled? The Debate Rages Over Bamboo | greenUPGRADER

They start out by comparing claims about bamboo fabric to those about Entegrion's military bandages, which are also made of bamboo. I sort of think this argument misses the point.

Giveaway ? Green Earth Bamboo $50 Gift Certificate ? Ends 1/15/11 | Sweeps4Bloggers

I love bamboo! This amazing plant is sustainable and eco-friendly. And it can be used for a wide variety of products – from furniture and housewares to clothing and bed and bath items. It’s naturally antimicrobial and moisture wicking.

Green Earth Bamboo carries stylish home, apparel and baby products made from viscose from bamboo fabrics. This fabric is a real treat. It’s amazingly soft and feels silky.

I have clothing and towels made from bamboo and was thrilled to try out Green Earth Bamboo’s bedding. The sheets and pillowcases look beautiful on the website, but nothing compares to seeing and feeling them in person.

We have to be honest though, and say that under the current process by which bamboo pulp is converted to fabric, it would be considered a Rayon. Also, while most bamboo is "organically grown" –meaning not needing chemicals or fertilizer, very little is certified organic. We are still going to promote and carry bamboo for now because of it's ease of growth and lack of pesticides or fertilizer, and hope this fabric will be able to be produced in a less toxic way in the future.
