"bamboo grows fast - really fast. It's abundant. It has strong regenerative powers. It eats carbon dioxide. And it’s incredibly lightweight, strong and flexible... achieved via a mild delignification process and simple air-drying. The resulting material is significantly stronger than wood-derived fibers, of comparable strength to synthetic fibers, and much easier on the environment"
