Bamboo Sheets- Read This Before Buying High T.c. Cotton Sheets- 7 Reasons To Consider Bamboo Sheets

Why discover bamboo bedding...you ask?

* How are advertised thread counts (T.C.) arrived at prior to packaging? Many manufacturers skirt the system, so to speak, so a bedding set that claims to be 800 T.C., might in fact be a 400 T.C. The point being that your so called 800 T.C. bedding, may have been packaged as a 400 T.C. sheet set, had another company manufactured the same sheets.

* To illustrate how and/or why this happens, let's delve in a little further. A strand of fabric comprised of two fibers is counted as two threads, by some maufacturers standards. In doing this, they can get away with doubling their T.C. for that product. The more ethical manufacturer would call this strand of fabric as it is - one thread.

* In the case of bamboo fabric, it is so naturally soft that there simply is no need to create an inflated T.C. Many consumers prefer the softness of bamboo bedding, to Egyptian cotton sheets costing 3 times as much.

* While bamboo fabric is touted as the softest fabric around, its absorption abilities are 2nd to none. Tests have shown it to be significantly more absorbent than cotton.

* In addition to its absorption attributes, organic bamboo wicks moisture at a rate that no other bedding fabric can match. In looking at the wicking rate, it becomes clear that many man made athletic fabrics can not even keep pace with that of bamboo fabric.

* Bamboo sheets, as well as other bath, bedding, clothing and bamboo baby clothes and accessories, have antimicrobial properties that can do wonders for their users. For those that suffer from night sweats, bamboo bedding could be just the ticket, as it is incredibly absorbent, and will wick the moisture from your body like no other fabric.

* The reality is that bamboo is one of the most abundant plant resources on the planet, so the sustainable nature of the source for these products, is but one of its eco-friendly features. If buying products that come from a 100% organic source... is important to you, then you are definitely going to want to take a look at bamboo fabrics. This is just the tip of iceberg...there is a wealth of case study information and other facts that you need to know in order to make an informed buying decision about your home goods. Please see the resource area below, for a link to these Faq's.
