While shopping for luxey bedding, you may instinctively steer toward cotton, as it’s one of the most popular materials in Australia right now. Bamboo, however, is quickly catching up due to its luxurious softness and sustainability. Whether you’re looking for a new comfort pillow or baby sheets, you can embrace a beautifully soft and smooth texture with enhanced cleanliness and breathability, thanks to the natural properties of bamboo fibre. Let’s review all the key differences between bamboo and cotton so you can make the right choice for luxury sleep at an affordable price.
Although bamboo and cotton share similarities as natural materials, the fibres used in bamboo pillows are free of the harmful pesticides used in the majority of cotton production. Cotton cultivation isn’t as environmentally friendly as bamboo farming, as bamboo cultivation only relies on freshwater irrigation and doesn’t need pesticides. Plus, bamboo requires just 1/3 of the volume of water needed to grow cotton, contributing to water conservation efforts around the world.
If you want a new comfort pillow that’s produced with the environment in mind, you can’t go wrong with thermoregulating bamboo pillows. Bamboo is a porous material that supports airflow, so 100% pure bamboo fibre is the way to go if you deal with night sweats or chills. Cotton can’t match such comprehensive temperature control.
Another reason bamboo is superior to cotton is the minimal maintenance requirements. While both bamboo and cotton bed or baby sheets should be washed every 7-10 days, cotton will show signs of wear as time passes, while bamboo is naturally very durable. With its natural antibacterial properties, bamboo bedding is easier to clean.
