Question by Spruce Moose: Is it better to buy 100% organic cotton, or 60% bamboo/40% standard cotton?
Speaking in terms of clothing and towels specifically. I have been able to find some towels that are 60% bamboo and 40% standard cotton. But I would of course prefer to buy something that is 100% organic. But I know that bamboo is an excellent resource as well.
So what’s better in terms of being sustainable?

Answer by Shrike
Cotton is already genetically altered to produce more fluff, and bamboo is just huge to begin with… but grows slower.
Cotton is still the better one.

Many of us love the feel of a huge, soft, cozy cotton bath towel each time we step out of the shower. However, if you haven’t tried bamboo bath towels, you should.
Organic Bamboo bath towels are certainly more expensive than just an average 100 percent cotton. Cotton bath towels can be purchased at nearly any retail store that sells bath products. Bamboo towels cannot be found nearly anywhere — which is a shame after you experience the combination of ultra sleek and satiny feel and highly absorbent quality these have to offer.
Believe it or not, bamboo can be softer and smoother than the softest cotton-made material. Many use the terms cashmere and silk when describing these luxury materials. They absorb just as much if not more than the same sized cotton ones and have superb absorption and quicker drying qualities.
The most appreciated quality of the bamboo are for those with sensitive skin. These towels are 100 percent hypoallergenic. Cotton-based products cannot make this same claim. Many cotton based towels can cause skin irritations for those with sensitive skin or allergies.
Another wonderful thing about bamboo bath towels is the organic bamboo ingredients are not manufactured or processed with pesticides. In addition, there are anti-bacterial attributes that can combat the build-up of bacterium and fungus. Because there is less build up of fungus and bacterium bamboo towels remain fresher much longer than cotton towels.
Bamboo towels are eco-friendly because bamboo is a resource that can be renewed over and over again which is great. Bamboo towels being eco-friendly makes them wonderful gift towels.
Towels are wonderful gifts for nearly every occasion. Towels are something that anyone can use. Whether you have an apartment or a house, you have a bathroom. Everyone uses towels and everyone can always use more towels. You can provide them as gifts for Christmas, weddings, anniversaries and especially house warmings.
If you are having a difficult time locating a great variety of bamboo towels in your community, the best place to shop for these terrific towels is online. Local stores or retailers may not have the variety or colors that you are seeking. In addition, many times online shopping can net some of the best deals available for household products.
Have these wonderful eco-friendly bamboo towels delivered to your door. Choose from any color, size, style or sets that you can imagine from the comfort of your own home. You can select the perfect bamboo sheets and have them delivered to your door or the door of the person that you want to give the perfect gift.

Totally Bamboo’s Congo cutting board is designed with the epicurean kitchen in mind. 16% harder than maple, Bamboo makes a superior material for cutting boards. The Congo cutting board is handcrafted using flattened strips of cured Bamboo bonded together with the highest rated, US laboratory tested and certified, formaldehyde-free adhesive specifically developed for food contact surfaces. Congo’s size, 17.25 x 13.75, makes it perfect for all your larger cutting and serving needs. Congo’s unique look is created using the end grain or cross-section of the bamboo pole. Small sections of the end grain are set in opposing directions creating the parquet design. No stains or paint are used to create the two-tones of Congo. The light tone is the Natural color of the Moso Bamboo and the scrumptious Honey shade is created in a very specialized heating process which caramelizes the natural sugar in the wood. These colors are permanent and will not fade or wash out. Care: wash with warm water and mild detergent and occasionally wipe with mineral oil (Do not clean in the dishwasher). An Ecological wonder, Bamboo is a grass that grows to a harvestable height of 60 feet in 3 to 5 years. It has an extensive root system that continually develops new shoots thus not requiring replanting making it an incredible self-renewing resource and a brilliant alternative to the wide spread clear cutting of our world’s hard wood forests. Do the world a favor¿ Do BambooFast-growing in nature, bamboo is also fast-growing in popularity as one of the most environmentally friendly, renewable resources available. Totally Bamboo prides itself on using only hand-selected, China-grown “moso” bamboo, which is not a food source or habitat for the giant panda, and which grows to harvestable size in just 3 to 5 years. Totally Bamboo follows strict environmental guidelines for processing and fair labor policies for its workers. And, the toxin-free products contain no dyes, stains, or glues containing formaldehyde.
The large Congo Parquet 17-1/4-by-13-3/4-by-1-inch cutting board from Totally Bamboo’s African collection makes a superb gift for the home chef. Like rock-solid butcher blocks made of wood, the board is composed of strips of bamboo laid in end-grain fashion. By alternating direction of the strips, an attractive parquet pattern is achieved, dark-colored in the center of the board with two lighter curved sides. Harder than maple, bamboo won’t absorb water, crack, or peel, yet won’t dull your good knives. The warm honey color, which comes from an oven-heating process that caramelizes the bamboo’s natural sugars, goes all the way through, won’t fade, and can even be sanded. After use, simply wash the board lightly with warm, soapy water, and wipe now and then with mineral oil. –Ann Bieri
