The Cheeky Panda 100% bamboo kitchen towel is created by two young eco entrepreneurs Chris and Julie. This wonderful product is made from 100% bamboo from FSC certified sustainable bamboo forest. Bamboo is the world's fastest growing plant and can grow up to one meter a day. Bamboo grows 20-30 times faster than trees, producing 30 per cent more oxygen and absorbing 35 per cent more carbon. Bamboo is like a grass so when its cut, it re-grows from the root; unlike trees that once cut the stump and the root systems are dead. Bamboo requires no fertilisers to help it grow, just sunshine and water. Bamboo is naturally anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, odour resistant and hypo-allergenic. Unlike recycled tissue, it doesn't contain any de-inking agents or traces of BPA. It super strong and absorbent. We hope you love it.
