9 REASONS WHY BAMBOO TOILET PAPER IS THE BEST?

Bamboo toilet paper has been gaining popularity due to several potential environmental benefits. Here are some reasons why bamboo toilet paper is considered better than traditional tree-based toilet paper.

This is one amazing plant and we love it!!  When we were looking for a material that was more sustainable than knocking down our forest, bamboo was hands down, the easy answer!

1. It is the fastest growing plant in the world – technically it’s a grass! Some species can grow 1.2m in a day. Bamboo regenerates and can be harvested year on year for up to 70 years.  Trees on the other hand take 30-40 years to mature just once, then need to be replanted after being harvested.

2. Soft & strong! Don’t let the colour fool you – this aint no finger poking sandpaper toilet paper! Bamboo fibers are long and strong, making it softer than many from recycled paper or wood fiber. ☁️💪🏻

3. Bamboo is naturally hypo-allergenic, anti-fungal and anti-bacterial. It’s a Super-plant!  We think it needs a cape! 🦸🏻‍♀️

4. It can be grown without pesticides or herbicides, as bamboo doesn’t have any natural pests.  Essentially meaning bamboo is organic! 🚫🌱

5. Bamboo doesn’t require any fertilizer.

6. Bamboo produces 30-35% more oxygen than trees. 🌳

7. It uses 30% less water than hardwood trees. 💦

8. Unlike wood pulp, its dust free! 

9. Helps to reduce deforestation (15% of deforestation is due to toilet paper production).
