Bamboo clothes - future of the garment industry?
2008-05-09 17:16:00
Making textile from bamboo does not seem to be any more strange than making clothes from wood. Yes, they do. The wood fiber is called viscose, and the fabric is very soft and nice to wear. Bamboo fiber is made in much the same way as viscose, but the bamboo has a lot of other nice properties, besides being soft. Here are some of them. Bamboo fiber absorbs perspiration and will not stick to your skin. It's great ability to breath makes bamboo garments particularly comfortable in hot temperatures. They are also warm in cold weather. Bamboo is also naturally anti-bacterial and this makes bamboo clothing stay fresh and odor free longer. It is also anti-static, UV protecting and anti fungal. Bamboo is also considered environmentally friendly since it grows like wildfire, and does not require green thumbs to cultivate. To add to this, bamboo grows in many Third World countries that could well use the additional export revenue. We have a couple of bamboo (and bamboo-cotton mix) t-shirt...

What's so good about Bamboo Hardwood Floors?
2008-05-07 17:24:00
I recently listed a townhome at Rivertrail in Redmond where the owners replaced the carpet on the first floor with bamboo flooring from bamboohardwoods.com Above is a sample of the flooring used, and I am noting some info from the brochure so I have a link to some FAQ's about this "strand woven engineered" bamboo floor. Why Use Bamboo? "Bamboo is harvested and replenished with no impact to the environment. It can be selectively harvested annually and is capable of complete regeneration without the need to replant. Because of its short growth cycle, it can be harvested in 3-5 years vs. 10-100 years for most tree woods." Strength and Durability "The Janka Ball Harness Test measures the force required to drive a 11.28mm steel ball half it's diameter into the wood. The test is a good indicator of resistance to denting as well as its harness for nailing and drilling." From softest to hardest: Fir-Pine-NA Cherry-Walnut-Moso Bamboo-R...

Chic Fashion Made From Bamboo...
2008-04-21 02:28:00
Well, I certainly learned something new!  Clothes made from bamboo (and no, I didn't try to make that rhyme..).  To celebrate Earth Day 2008 (April, 2008), we can all do more to reduce our "carbon footprint".  Listen, I'm not someone you would call a "tree-hugger", but I do recognize the importance of "recycling, re-using and reducing waste" even if I don't do it all the time.  And clothes made from sustainable products, like bamboo (which just happens to be one of the fastest growing plants on the planet, making it an enduring natural resource), is definitely a step in the right direction.

The Most Important Poll in Bamboo Nation History; Plus, Reaching Into My "B
2008-04-16 10:58:00
In 2002, I spent a month in Arlington, Virginia, working on the world premiere production of my play, Boyz of All Nationz: The Rise and Fall of a Multi-Ethnic Boy Band. Each morning I would exercise while watching Blue's Clues, a hugely popular Nickelodeon show for preschoolers. But the program was also oddly mesmerizing for adults like me?not only because of its strangely soothing premise and structure (just perfect and gentle so early in the morning), but also because I had huge man-crush on the host, Joe. It was Joe's first enthusiastic year on the show?he replaced Steve Burns, who had been hosting since 1996.Malcolm Gladwell, the author of the terrific book, The Tipping Point, called the show "perhaps the 'stickiest'?meaning the most irresistible and involving?television show ever." His description of it:Steve, the host, presents the audience with a puzzle involving Blue, the animated dog.... In between the discovery of the clues, Steve plays a series of games?mini-puzzles?...

The Bamboo - A Miracle Material
2008-04-09 20:18:00
In the world of the building materials, bamboo could compete successfully against steel, concrete, wood and glass. Because of its exceptional mechanical qualities, low price and design, bamboo could turn into one of the preferred building materials of the future.

The company was showing off a number product concepts on the show, as seen above, and while little info was given on specs or releases, they certainly seem to be a sign of things to come. We're actually a bit more excited about that Essentio 5110 bamboo desktop than the various laptops, but, as demonstrated by the EcoBook, ASUS is probably going to be pushing this mostly in a laptop direction.[Via Crave] Read | Permalink | Email this | Comments
