Bamboo is an incredible plant that is eco-friendly and fast-growing. It belongs to the grass family Poaceae, but bamboo is very treelike as it grows tall and sturdy.
Bamboo grows naturally and doesn’t need chemicals or fertilizers to grow, so you don’t have to worry about toxins when using products made of bamboo.
Because of this, bamboo can help fight global warming and reduce our carbon footprint.
Certain species of this eco-friendly plant can grow up to one meter in 24 hours or at a rate of 40 mm an hour.
The bamboo roots bind together to hold the soil, preventing soil loss.
Many species thrive in tropical climates, but you can also find bamboo in cool mountainous regions and cloud forests.
The fast harvesting rate is impressive compared to a regular tree, which can take 30 years or more to mature.
The antibacterial properties of bamboo are all thanks to a substance called bamboo Kun. Bamboo Kun is found in the bamboo fibre and prevents bacteria and microbes from forming. The antibacterial properties make bamboo the perfect choice for bamboo straws and toothbrushes, keeping them fresh and clean.
Due to its high tensile strength, bamboo is often used in construction.
Since bamboo is 100% natural, it will break down entirely in a couple of years.
This miraculous plant is an eco-friendly alternative to many products like toothbrushes, straws, flooring and furniture.
Switching from plastic products to products made of bamboo will reduce our environmental impact. Every step matters when it comes to creating a more sustainable future.
