Question from Aimee

Proof is coming to light that bamboo fabric is NOT ‘green’…Four bamboo fabric processing companies

Debra’s Answer

Please follow this link to read the FTC’s viewpoint on bamboo fabric claims.

I’m hoping that this won’t be the end of bamboo fabrics, as bamboo is a renewable resource. I’d like to see this all get straightened out, have the manufacturing process improved, and have bamboo fabric be a viable green product.
