So what is it about Bamboo that is so green?
Bamboo releases more oxygen than the equivalent strands of trees, as much as 35% in some instances, and therefore provides a natural resistance for a planet with increasing CO2 emissions.
Impressively, it is capable of removing up to 12 tons of carbon dioxide from the air per hectare. It also grows incredibly quickly, sometimes as much as a metre a day.
Bamboo is naturally sustainable as well because it’s actually a woody grass with a unique rhizome so requires no replanting after harvesting, whereas a conventional tree is cut down and gone forever.
Plus, to put your fears for the wildlife at rest, none of the Bamboo Bambienti use is used for food by the panda bear.
It’s also important to be aware of how the products you buy are made. We all know that mass manufactured products rely upon carbon intensive processes, and are produced in large factories where labourers are, more often than not, marginalized.
Bambienti’s designs, on the other hand, are all handmade by a selected network of small and medium sized, cottage industry style workshops, all of which have met Bambienti’s founder Charles.
Bambienti always aim to ensure that their staffs’ wages are above average for the area, promoting a positive and more comfortable lifestyle for their worker’s families, while ensuring that working conditions are clean, comfortable, and safe.
So hopefully now its that little bit easier for you to make your home greener. Go for a sustainable material like Bamboo and you’ll be doing your bit for the environment, supporting workers but without compromising on style. Every little counts when it comes to helping the world go green.
