Bamboo is one of the most sustainable and versatile resources due to its fast growth rate, ability to be continually reharvested without damage to the environment, high yields, and low need for irrigation or fertilizers. Bamboo sequesters more carbon than trees, can help slow deforestation, and its extensive root system prevents soil erosion. Bamboo fibre is 100% biodegradable and its production generates less greenhouse gases than other materials like cotton or synthetic fibres.
