In Bamboo Fabrics (latest issues)
1. Antibacterial property for bamboo fabric
will be wash out?
Bamboo fibers contain a natural substance
called bamboo kun, which provides antibacterial properties to the plant. This
substance is present even after the fibers are processed into fabric. According
to a study done by the Japanese Textile Inspection Association, the
antibacterial properties of 100 percent bamboo fabric are still 70 percent
effective after being washed 50 times.The antibacterial properties not only aid
in killing disease causing bacteria, but are useful in preventing odors as
well.
2. Antifungal? Mold resistant?
Bamboo fabrics are also anti-fungal. According
to Bamboo Home USA, a study on 50 athletes foot sufferers proved that wearing
bamboo socks can eliminate athletes foot with no adverse effects. Participants
in the study experienced less severe symptoms after two days and a complete
recovery within six days of wearing the socks. That is why less mold problem with
100% bamboo material.
