We are committed to reducing the stress on our environment. Mediplast’s bamboo range offers improved performance in wound care healing, as well as significant advantages for the wellbeing of our planet.

Antibacterial properties

Because bamboo has an inherit natural antibacterial barricade against bacteria, most bacteria and other microorganisms that attempt to thrive on the bamboo plant are eradicated naturally on contact. Bamboo is one of the rare plants that can survive almost anything nature can throw at it.

Long-Term Freshness

Fabrics made using bamboo offer excellent ventilation thanks to the microscopic holes in bamboo fibres. This is why bamboo keeps you feeling fresh and dry longer. Bamboo also has a structure that repels moisture, meaning it wicks away moisture quickly.

Wonderfully Soft

Another great advantage is the softness of bamboo textiles and the excellent comfort offered. The smooth and round structure of the bamboo fibre leaves no sharp or rough elements that irritate the skin and therefore it feels wonderfully soft against the skin.

Excellent Heat Regulation

Bamboo fabrics have several insulating properties that influence heat exchange. In warm weather, bamboo fabrics feel fresh while also providing added protection against the chill of a cold day.
