Why Bamboo
Bamboo is the most sustainable alternative to wood. It is technically a grass and therefore does not require replanting. It is one of the fastest growing plants in the world and produces considerably more fiber on less land area than trees used to make hygienic paper products. In addition, bamboo produces about 30-35% more oxygen than other plants and trees and it reduces the amount of carbon dioxide, the largest greenhouse gas, by about the same amount.
Prevents Deforestation
The use of bamboo significantly reduces deforestation. According to the Environmental Protection Agency, one hardwood tree produces approximately 45 kg of toilet paper and about 83 million toilet rolls are produced every day. Because so many trees are being cut down for toilet paper we need an alternative source such as bamboo, which grows up to 100 cm a day and is usually fully grown within three to five years
Biodegradable
Bamboo is 100 percent biodegradable and therefore better and safer for the environment. In addition, it is better for the quality of our soils and it does not leave as many remains and unwanted by-products during the production process. Bamboo forests grow over 30 times faster than conventional trees. Bamboo is the grass that does not require you to replant it after harvesting. Overall, bamboo toilet paper breaks down much better than traditional – and even recycled – toilet paper. Like a bamboo toothbrush, a thin sheet of bamboo toilet paper will promptly and naturally decompose, leaving no trace of existence – on the planet or in your pipes.
Softer and Stronger
The natural properties of bamboo make it stronger than hardwood. In addition, it also feels cooler and softer. These three characteristics ensure that bamboo papers surpasses traditional and recycled papers in terms of quality and user experience.
Sustainable Manufacturing
The closed-loop system used to produce bamboo toilet paper requires that water and other materials are collected, reused and recycled. That is why bamboo production, in addition to requiring less energy, also uses only about one fifth of the water needed to convert wood pulp into the same amount of toilet paper.
