Bamboo sheets are becoming an increasingly popular must-have item due to their silky smooth feel and Earth-friendly qualities.

How is Bamboo Made into Sheets?

Bamboo fabric is made from the pulp fibers in the bamboo stalks. Only certain species of bamboo are used to make sheets, fabric and linens. Moso bamboo is used to make the sheets that are available on SleepBamboo.com. Though notably, there are more than 1,000 different species of bamboo, which is actually a type of grass, rather than a tree as some people believe.

Once the bamboo is harvested, it's processed chemically and transformed into a pulp, which is then extruded through spinarettes, which create bamboo thread. The thread is then dyed and woven into fabric, which is used to create linens, clothing and other products.

Notably, bamboo's absorbent qualities makes it ideal for brightly colored sheets and linens! Bamboo readily absorbs dyes, making it possible to dye bamboo sheets vibrant colors of all shades! SleepBamboo.com offers bamboo sheets in a wide range of bright, radiant colors, from lavender and ruby red to Syrah royal purple, honeysuckle pink, deep teal, cedar green and emberglow, which is a melon-like hue.

SleepBamboo.com also sells other linens, such as duvet covers, so you can enjoy the silky soft and smooth texture and bright colors of bamboo fabric on top of your bed as well!
