Bamboo Viscose 

Bamboo Viscose Fabric is made out of Bamboo, which is naturally antibacterial, anti-fungal, hypoallergenic, and UV Protection. 

Bamboo Viscose is a material that came from the fibers of a bamboo plant, spun, and combined, until the yarn is created. In addition to that, with all the amazing benefits Bamboo Viscose offers, it generally results in being a more expensive fabric. However, you get what you pay for because it is extremely soft and breathable to the skin.

Anti-bacterial: This makes the item from the material odor-free. Also, this is perfect for individuals who are struggling with body odor or littles who use their diapers. As it will keep the clothes smelling fresh longer than other fabrics.

Hypoallergenic: There are studies showing that bamboo has hypoallergenic properties. There are people who are allergic to cotton because of the chemical used during the process of producing such material. That being said, the bamboo fabric is a great alternative, provided that it is made naturally, It has less harmful chemicals and minimal off-gassing.

Moisture-Wicking:  Compared to cotton, bamboo is 4 to 5 times more absorbent which is why it has moisture-wicking abilities. Because of this trait of bamboo, it will absorb plenty of water and feel heavy whenever you pull it out of the washer. On the other hand, it still dries up pretty fast so it will not be an issue.

Thermo-Regulating Attribute: One of the primary reasons why bamboo viscose is perfect is because it is more breathable to the skin. This makes bamboo viscose clothes beneficial during summer. Best of all, bamboo viscose is warm to the skin during winter. 

Bamboo fibers create an incredibly soft fabric that is both gentle and cozy to the touch. Bamboo is one of the most sustainable resources on earth, textile or otherwise. Growing up to a yard in a single day, it never requires replanting due to its vast interconnected root network. Not only is it earth-friendly, but it is also an environmentally intelligent choice because bamboo minimizes C02 and generates 35% more oxygen than trees. 

 

Minky

Wicking Jersey is not a common liner used in cloth diapers, but Lil Comforts can't pass up all the great features it offers!
