Do you know bamboo viscose fabric
Pandas may love munching bamboo, and some studies suggest bamboo can produce up to 35% more oxygen than trees of a similar size. What are we talking about exactly. Let’s get to know the main fabric behind our baby clothes, bamboo.
Bamboo grows very quickly and most species are undemanding. It counts as a renewable resource, and it can even be used for composting, so its eco role is significant.
It is no coincidence that our baby clothes contain 95% bamboo viscose.
Besides being kinder to the planet, why do we recommend it especially for babies to wear.
- Clothes made from this fabric are famous not only for being a very comfortable solution for children and parents, they are also highly breathable. This helps babies sleep comfortably and peacefully, and play freely during the day, since it does not irritate the skin and babies do not get sweaty underneath. As a result, problems such as baby eczema, which can be very uncomfortable, can be avoided. This is welcome news for anyone with more sensitive skin.
- Some research suggests that bamboo also has thermoregulating properties, so these garments can be worn in both winter and summer.
- Alongside bamboo viscose there is 5% elastane in the fabric, which makes it extra stretchy, durable and robust. Even the most active children will love it, and parents do not have to worry about buying new clothes week after week for a growing little one.
- This helps turn getting dressed from a real test into simple child’s play.
- Bamboo also has a much higher moisture absorption capacity than cotton, which supports all day comfort and a healthy environment for the skin.
- It is a great choice for conscious parents too, since you generate far less waste than with mass produced cotton baby clothes, where you may need several sizes and several pieces within just a few months.
Based on all this, it is no surprise bamboo is often called a “super plant”. Whether it is a day of play or a restful night’s sleep, our baby clothes keep little ones comfortable in all conditions.

How environmentally friendly is bamboo
More and more parents aim to shop in a conscious, sustainable and eco friendly way. From this perspective it matters what we buy for ourselves and our children, and how environmentally friendly our wardrobe is.
Bamboo is an excellent base material from this point of view too, since it is considered a renewable resource. It grows quickly, most species need little care and it can even be used for composting. It is no coincidence that LiaaBébé baby clothes contain 95% bamboo viscose. They are a good choice for conscious parents as well, since they produce far less waste than mass produced cotton baby clothes, where we may need several items and sizes within a few months.
I have not come across baby clothes made from bamboo fibre. How can that be
Many parents may wonder why, if bamboo fibre baby clothes are so good, they have not seen them yet on the shelves of baby shops and department stores. The reason is very simple.
If you think about it, you do not necessarily find certain premium products in average high street stores. Because bamboo babywear is still a novelty in our country, you will rarely see it in shops.
In the West, however, it is becoming a popular trend used by thousands of parents. It is not only comfortable, it is also a reliable alternative that you can use for much longer than average cotton clothes. It is only a matter of time before quality focused, durability minded parents here discover it too.
So, is it worth buying bamboo fibre baby clothes
Overall, clothes made from bamboo fibre are comfortable and reliable. They give children extra softness from the first moment of wear, and they guarantee easy, fuss free dressing for parents.
Bamboo also has a much higher moisture absorption capacity than cotton, which supports all day comfort and a healthy environment for the skin. Thanks to the breathable nature of bamboo fibre fabric, it feels warm in winter and cool in summer.
Despite the softness and comfort, the fabric is very durable and robust, as well as stretchy. Even the most active children will love it, and parents do not have to worry about buying new clothes week after week for a growing, developing little one.
We can also say that baby clothes made from bamboo fibre are truly special. Although more and more people are using them abroad and the trend has a growing fan base, in our country they are still something of a rarity. Parents who like exclusive things and enjoy being among the first to try new, proven solutions will love them.
