Dear Lil' Devas Bamboo Fabric Info:
Bamboo fabric is ideal for exercise wear. However, all bamboo fabric is not created equally.
After much research Dear Lil’ Devas found the bamboo fabric that meets our environmental, ethical and quality expectations.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
Bamboo is a forestry product, so the natural eco-system stays in place. There is no need for
pesticides, herbicides, tilling or replanting. Bamboo groves return a huge amount of
oxygen back to the atmosphere in comparison with other types of forests.
ECO AND WORKER FRIENDLY
Our bamboo is grown solely in bamboo groves that have FSC Certification, and OCIA/NOP International Organic
Standards Certification.
Our knit of 70% viscose from certified organic bamboo yarn and 30% certified organic cotton yarn has the
European Oeko-Tex 100 certification and is produced meeting ISO 14001 standards.
BAMBOO YARN
The certified organic bamboo used in Dear Lil’ Devas bamboo fabric has been pulped and
spun into yarn using a clean, modern viscose process. The result of this process is a high
modulus yarn - could be called the “Pima Cotton” of bamboo, offering excellent luster,
softness and durability.
FABRIC FINISHING PROCESS
Fabric is knit and dyed in Canada.
LOW IMPACT DYED
Our unique single jet-dying process has been developed to have the lowest environmental
impact possible. The fabric is prepared for dye using hot water and a mechanical process
only (scouring). The dying is done using small quantities of environmentally friendly dyes
free of heavy metals, chlorine, solvents, optical brightening chemicals, or any other toxic
chemicals.
NO ANTIBACTERIAL CHEMICAL TREATMENT
Silver Nitrate is the main ingredient of the anti-microbial treatment that is very often applied to mass-produced athletic wear and shoes. It is a poisonous substance, and not applied to DLD items.
DEAR LIL' DEVAS LOCAL NON-FACTORY DESIGN AND SEWING
Because we do not mass-produce our items, we are blessed to be able to maintain a benevolent and interactive design and sewing
environment. The local women who are a part of Dear Lil’ Devas are relaxed and dedicated.
By using beautiful materials that we consider to be a gift from nature,
putting those materials into high-quality, timeless designs, and sewing them up in an unhurried, mindful atmosphere, we’ve got some really good vibes going on here.
We believe that those good vibes translate into the
final products, and in turn are transferred to you. Namaste.
Please contact rosie@dearlildevas.com if you have any questions about the information provided above. It has been compiled with the help of Dear Lil' Devas suppliers, and we are happy to receive questions and comments from you.
