Bamboo bedding has many unique benefits, making it an exceptional choice for your home but what are the many qualities of this natural material?
Regulates your temperature
Bamboo works with your body to keep you at the perfect temperature all night long.
If you are suffering from hot flushes brought on by the menopause Bamboo bedding is a perfect choice. When your hormones kick in and raise your body temperature, bamboo bedding wicks away the extra heat and sweat twice as fast as cotton reducing the humidity in your bed by 50%. By keeping you cooler and drier, you won’t overheat when you sleep meaning you’re less likely to wake from a hot flush and you can finally sleep through the night1. Therefore by working together with your body, bamboo bedding is able to keep you at the ideal temperature all night long2.
Hypoallergenic
Naturally hypoallergenic, Bamboo is mild and gentle. Unlike many other materials, it is not treated with pesticides or fungicides and does not hold onto odour.
Naturally anti-bacterial, bamboo has a unique antimicrobial agent called bamboo-kun that kills bacteria and other microbes. As a result, fewer bacteria prevents irritated or eczema prone skin from becoming infected3.

Moisture Wicking
Four times more absorbent than cotton, Bamboo keeps skin cool and dry by wicking away moisture helping you to retain a natural body temperature. It is also mould and mildew resistant.
A Bamboo sheet will pull the moisture away from you into the fibres of your bedding, unlike traditional cotton. This moisture rises to the surface of your organic bedding and evaporates, cooling you off exactly the same way your body does when you sweat.
Velfont Bamboo Knitted Pillow Protector
Naturally resistant to dust mites, mould and mildew
Bamboo bed sheets minimise allergies by reducing the amount of moisture in your bed.
Dust mites love to make their homes in synthetic and down materials. They retain moisture and provide a better living habitat, making the dry environment of Bamboo uninhabitable. Allergy sufferers often experience restless sleep due to the irritating symptoms caused by dust mites, but by investing in bamboo bedding products, these triggers are minimised and sufferers can enjoy the full night of deep, undisturbed sleep they deserve.
