Eco Friendly Bamboo Gives Cotton A Run For Its Money – Good For The Skin And Good For The Planet

PRLog (Press Release) – Sep 28, 2009 – The team at BAMBOO TEXTILES Ltd have announced additional products and believe they now have the widest range of bamboo textile products available in the UK.
The range is aimed at eco-conscious consumers wanting a viable alternative to cotton-based merchandise.
20% of pesticides used throughout the world are used in growing cotton also valuable water resources are needed for cotton crops.
With a diverse selection of bed clothing including elegant sheets, duvet covers, pillows and pillowcases Bamboo Textiles’ range includes simple clothing for adults, children and babies, along with towels, nappies and household wipes. Bamboo fabric is particularly effective for those with sensitive skin and skin disorders, it is known as the “breathing fibre”. It may be the end of smelly feet too as socks made from bamboo have a deodorising effect due to the natural bacteriostatic bioagent of the fibre.
All prices and products are detailed on the Bamboo Textiles’ website: http://www.bamboo-textiles.co.uk
As a long established textile company, Bamboo Textiles recognizes the benefits and advantages offered by bamboo, which boasts many superior qualities to cotton.
“Bamboo has naturally inherent anti bacterial properties, 30% greater absorbency than cotton, high UV protection and durability,” said Bamboo Textiles  director David Hardman.
“ A couple of years ago we identified a growing market for bamboo fabric products. Bamboo was developed into a fibre only about five years ago. Many families will welcome its unique properties and we also believe that care homes and healthcare institutions will find it revolutionary ” he added.
“Bamboo is known to have outstanding benefits for those suffering from skin allergies and it is incredibly soft to the touch.
Environmentally conscious consumers and organisations will also appreciate the fact that bamboo is a continuously sustainable crop, growing at a very rapid rate with no need for irrigation.
“Bamboo is 100% naturally grown, and thrives naturally without using any pesticides or fertilizers. The fibre is 100% biodegradable, and the yield from an acre of bamboo is 10 times greater than the yield from cotton,” added Mr. Hardman.
Bamboo takes up far more greenhouse gases and releases far more oxygen than cotton its nearest rival.
DID YOU KNOW?
FACT
Bamboo is the fastest growing plant in the world, mainly because it has extraordinary water absorbency which helps it to grow quickly.
FACT
It’s 30% more absorbent than cotton.  It 'wicks' away moisture from the body which then evaporates, keeping wearers drier and more comfortable.  Organically grown clothing made from bamboo has particular natural anti-bacterial functions, bacteriostasis and deodorization value.  
FACT  
Bamboo is remarkably breathable.  In the heat, bamboo is naturally cool to wear.  It has much better moisture absorption and ventilation than cotton.  It's also very warm in cold weather, because of the same micro structure; as a base layer, warm air gets trapped next to the skin.
FACT
Bamboo is antibacterial, antifungal and anti-static.  In the wild, bamboo thrives naturally without using any pesticides or fertilisers. It is seldom eaten by pests or infected by pathogens.  Bamboo has a unique anti-bacteria and bacteriostasis bio-agent - "bamboo kun". This substance bonds tightly with bamboo cellulose molecules during the normal process of  bamboo fibre growth.  This natural feature is retained in fabric form.
FACT
Bamboo takes up far more greenhouse gases and releases far more oxygen than cotton its nearest rival. It grows naturally without the need for pesticides or irrigation.
Cotton requires vast amounts of pesticide, fertiliser, irrigated water and cheap labour – even the organic variety is water intensive. It uses around 20% of the world’s insecticides and 10% of the pesticides. It takes roughly one-third of a pound of chemicals (pesticides and fertilizers) to grow enough cotton for just one T-shirt.

Custom Headbands – Embroidered and Great!

PRLog (Press Release) – Sep 21, 2009 – When it comes to focusing your eyes on the game and keeping the sweat out of them, headbands do the trick. Headbands have been around for a while but are most notably worn by your disco girlfriends or your favorite basketball players. The great thing is that these headbands can now be customized for your sports team, event, or party. With your logo headbands suddenly turn into great promotional product or merchandise to sell for your cause. Custom headbands are very profitable if you use them right as merchandise to build your brand. We’ll go over different ways you can use custom headbands.
Custom Headbands for your Sports Team
Is it possible that custom headbands could bring new light to your team? The answer is an exhilarating YES. If you play tennis, basketball, or soccer than you can use these to bring out the inner warrior within the team. It is well known that army’s all dress the same because it makes them look as one. It’s the same idea with your sports team. Adding accessories to this mix only make you look more potent. Now that I got that out of the way we can talk about some of the more obvious benefits such as preventing sweat from ruining your game winner.
Custom Headbands – Keep the Sweat out of your Eyes.
When playing sports your most important asset is hand-EYE coordination (if you play soccer it’s foot-eye). Either way, the most important aspect of your game is your eyes and how well they are able to see the environment around you. If you’re like most people and sweat a whole bunch than you’ll notice that it drips down into your eyes. Not only does this blur your vision for a few seconds but it also stings a bit. You’ll notice prior to wearing custom headbands that you may have constantly been shoving your fingers I n your eyes to get the sweat-sting out. The good thing about custom headbands is that they are so light weight that after a few minutes you won’t even know they are there.
Custom head sweatbands for Promotional
We’ve seen this example time and time again at huge events. Events like New Years at New York City, Mardi Gras, and others. You’re having an awesome time and next thing you know you’re paying $10 for the awesome memory. When you use headbands for these types of events it is a POWERFUL concept, especially if you give out the first 100 free. You have to think beyond the actual night because these headbands will live on forever. That is not just some cheesy saying; it means that your logo will be on 1000’s of social network pictures on top of people heads. People see these pictures and that is INSTANT brand recognition for your cause. An example of this would be you plan a concert out for a big holiday such as New Years. You have several famous bands booked along with an opening comedian. Tickets are sold out and the place will be packed. The question is how are you branding your company or cause? The best way is to use custom headbands because no matter what it is visible both in person and on a picture.
Headbands as Custom Merchandise
Ahh, isn’t it awesome knowing that if you are a band you can now create your own merch. Over the past 2 years custom headbands and wrist sweatbands have become increasingly popular on a local level for musicians around the world. Of course, it doesn’t stop at musicians. Any type of entertainment can have merchandise attached to it. Amazingly enough, if people see a good show they are going to want something to remember it by; So, if you are a talented entertainer you should not be selling yourself short.
