If you’re looking to spruce up your office space and make it a little more chic and a little more ‘green’, you’re going to want to check out some eco friendly bamboo products. Here are our top 6 reasons why:
- Bamboo is strong and durable
With entire houses now being built from bamboo, it makes sense that it is one of the most durable plants. Bamboo is known for its strength and impressive lifespan that, with the right care, will last for many years to come.
- Bamboo is the fastest growing plant on earth
Did you know that bamboo can grow to its full size in just three to four months, compared with other trees that can take 30 or more years to fully form, making it one of the most sustainable plants that exists. Another plus is that bamboo doesn’t require any pesticides to harvest, making its cultivation chemical-free and kind to the environment.
- Bamboo is strong and durable
With entire houses now being built from bamboo, it makes sense that it is one of the most durable plants. Bamboo is known for its strength and impressive lifespan that, with the right care, will last for many years to come. You can feel assured then, that in purchasing bamboo based products, you’re making an investment both for yourself and the environment.
- Bamboo is safe and hygienic
One of the most interesting bamboo benefits is that bamboo creates its own anit-bacterial properties, through a substance it possesses called “bamboo kun”. This substance exists as part of the bamboo fibre and helps prevent bacteria from growing on the bamboo, making it the perfect material to create products related to hygiene, such as this bamboo cutlery set, which are naturally sterile.
- Bamboo is great for the environment
Bamboo is, of course, a natural material, meaning it’ll go right back into nature and won’t leave a harsh ecological footprint on the planet. Not only that, it actually gives back to the environment by effectively storing carbon dioxide (twice the amount of trees), and omits up to 30% more oxygen than most other foliage. These bamboo straws, for example, are one of our reusable products that are of course a much more sustainable choice of material for a product that used to typically be made of plastic.
- Bamboo is good for the community
Bamboo production and manufacturing creates jobs for local people who live in areas that, in general, lack social and economic stability. Another reason to buy bamboo office products when you finally get around to going green and sprucing up your office space.
- Bamboo looks great
And lastly, bamboo is a quality material that instantly adds a feel of stylish sustainability to any living or office space. Check out our range of home and office bamboo products and see for yourself!
