The benefits of bamboo
Love & Lee bamboo blankets and bamboo washcloths and face washers are made from yarn which is incredibly soft on sensitive and delicate skin and is also breathable and absorbent. What's not to love about it!
All Love & Lee bamboo blankets and bamboo washcloths are made from STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX® certified yarn giving you assurance it has successfully passed the tests for harmful substances such as azo dyes, formaldehyde, pentachlorophenol, cadmium, nickel, and many more.
The safety of your baby is our highest priority, which is why our bamboo yarn is certified to OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 and tested for harmful substances.
How our bamboo yarn is made
Love & Lee bamboo blankets and bamboo washcloths and face washers begin with the bamboo plant, which is processed into soft fibres and spun into yarn. All bamboo yarn for our bamboo blankets and bamboo washcloths is certified to STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX®.
The bamboo plant
Did you know that some species of bamboo can grow up to 91cm in a single day? Bamboo holds the Guinness World Record for the fastest-growing plant.
We love using bamboo for our blankets and washcloths because it is such a fast-growing and adaptable plant that can be grown in many different types of climates. Bamboo is classified as a grass, and when it is harvested the canes regrow from the existing root system, with no need for replanting.
