Our products are made up of high quality, OEKO-TEX® standard 100 certified Bamboo fiber which is natural, antibacterial and bacteriostatic, hygroscopic and permeable, smooth and soft, green and biodegradable, breathable and cool as well as ultraviolet-proof. Bamboo is a sustainable material because of its rapid growth and because it requires only CO2. What is notable of bamboo fiber is its unusual ability to breathe and its coolness. Apparels made from Bamboo fibers are 1-2 degrees lower than normal apparels in summer and that is why bamboo fabric is used in much of our period intimate and apparel range.
The inner lining of our products are all made of GOTS certified Organic cotton fabric. Organic Cotton is grown safely without the use of harmful chemicals and fertilizers and processed without toxic dyes and finishing materials. So they are equally good for the environment and human health. Inner wear made of organic cotton fabric are safer as manufacturers adhere to very rigid and stricter production and manufacturing standards. There are no chemical retentions from organic cotton clothing; thus, people especially with sensitive skin, allergies or with specific chemical sensitivity will greatly benefit from having Organic Cotton fabric as the lining material in their Under-garments.
