Have you noticed it lately?
In Kathmandu, on trekking trails, in offices, cafés, and markets — bamboo clothing is everywhere.
From sweaters to base layers, more and more Nepalis are switching to bamboo fabric. But why?
Is it just a trend… or something bigger?
Let’s find out.
🌱 What Is Bamboo Fabric?
Yes — bamboo, the same plant pandas eat 🐼, is now part of modern fashion.
But it’s special.
Bamboo fabric is made from bamboo fibers and has powerful natural benefits:
✔ Grows fast (up to 3 feet per day)
✔ Needs very little water
✔ No pesticides
✔ Regrows automatically
✔ Absorbs more CO₂ than trees
That makes bamboo one of the most sustainable plants on Earth.
🏭 How Is Bamboo Turned into Fabric?
There are three main methods:
1️⃣ Mechanical Processing (Most Eco-Friendly)
Natural enzymes
No harsh chemicals
Feels like linen
Expensive but pure
2️⃣ Chemical Processing (Most Common)
Uses chemicals
Creates soft viscose fiber
Widely used worldwide
3️⃣ Closed-Loop (Best Balance)
Recycles 99% chemicals
Environmentally safe
High quality
At Diamond Knitland, we always stay transparent about our production.
