Why bamboo is the world’s most sustainable toilet paper!

Bamboo is the material we all need in our lives… We don’t think about where our toilet paper comes from do we? Did you know that 15% of all deforestation is caused by tissue manufacturing? Every single day, 27,000 trees are cut down to make toilet paper.

Introducing Bambuyu, who offer a sustainable & tree-free alternative – bamboo, the ideal solution as it’s a raw material that is sustainable and renewable whilst also soft & absorbent. Bamboo is actually a grass (not a tree), so it does not require planting after harvesting and can grow back naturally. It also has natural antibacterial properties, so it can be grown without the use of harsh chemicals and pesticides.

As bamboo is the world’s fastest-growing plant and grows x30 faster than trees, it makes it one of the most environmentally friendly materials you can choose. A grove of bamboo produces 35% more oxygen than a tree of a similar size which helps in reducing our carbon footprint too!
