Discover the benefits of bamboo/polyester, a fabric better and more advanced than simple cotton
Did you know that the bamboo plant is one of the most renewable resources on the planet? And that it is one of the most inexhaustible?
In this article, we will talk about the fabric featured in the latest collection of men's boxers and pajamas from El Búho Nocturno. Once again, we commit to responsible production because bamboo woven fabric is natural and sourced sustainably. In this way, El Búho Nocturno offers men's summer pajamas and boxers made of the highest quality woven fabric while caring for the environment.
Bamboo:
What does this mean? That bamboo does not need much water or chemical products to protect it. Nor does its growth require resources that demand energy and money. Using bamboo woven fabric is a commitment to quality and health; it is an eco-friendly fabric since it produces 35% more oxygen than other trees and is also renewable and sustainable.
How is the bamboo fabric used in the manufacture of our men's pajamas and boxers obtained?
1) The pulp is extracted from the cane (cellulose fiber). This process can be done mechanically or chemically. The first is more eco-friendly, and it is important to differentiate them because the second produces what is known as bamboo viscose.
2) It is washed.
3) It is dried and brushed. This step ensures that the woven fabric is clean.
4) It undergoes desizing to acquire softness.
5) It bleaches and dyes.
6) The result: a quality garment that invites itself to be part of anyone's wardrobe, even aligning with more exclusive fabrics like silk.
El Búho Nocturno has chosen to make the latest line of underwear with natural bamboo fibers because, among many of its benefits, it is a hypoallergenic woven (recommended for sensitive and allergic skin since it does not contain lanolin, a fatty substance obtained from some animals). It is also absorbent and breathable (even more than cotton). It contains a chemical called KUN, which is a natural bactericide that eliminates 99% of the bacteria that come into contact with the woven, making it a fabric that does not easily retain bad odors since the bacteria present on the human body are eradicated.
At the same time, it is a very soft and comfortable woven to the touch. It is also practical because it gets less dirty than other fabrics and helps regulate body temperature. It is cool for summer and warm for winter; it aligns with the body's own temperature. Additionally, garments made with bamboo are more durable and long-lasting.
