Are you Team Bamboo or Team Cotton? If you’re still on the fence, here’s the ‘Pure Zone version’ rundown, where we answer your most asked questions.
When it comes to selecting bedlinen, the choice between Bamboo and Cotton can be both intriguing and perplexing. Each fabric boasts unique features and benefits, catering to different preferences and needs. Here we explore the characteristics of both Bamboo and Cotton. Our goal is to empower you to make an informed decision, ensuring you and your family enjoy the best night's sleep possible.

When considering Bamboo and Cotton bedlinen, the traditional focus on thread count doesn’t hold as much weight. Unlike other materials, the texture and feel of Bamboo and Cotton bedding are influenced more by weave styles than by thread count alone. Additionally, the quality of the fibres used plays a significant role in comfort and durability. Both Bamboo and Cotton are known for their breathability, ensuring a comfortable sleep experience regardless of thread count.

Bamboo: Renowned for its luxurious softness, Bamboo bedlinen offers a silky-smooth texture that's extremely gentle on the skin. Its naturally round fibres create a plush feel - like they’re giving you a big, super soft and warm hug before you drift off to a restful night's sleep.
Cotton: Offers versatility to meet various preferences. It can present a classic crispness and freshness or a smooth sateen feel, depending on the percale (weave of the fabric) and thread count. Cotton gives you that “5 star hotel bed” feeling you get as you slip between the sheets.

Bamboo: A standout feature of Bamboo bedlinen is its exceptional breathability and moisture-wicking properties. Bamboo fibres allow for enhanced airflow, keeping you cool and comfortable in warmer temperatures but also warm during the cooler months. This makes it a bedlinen that is perfectly used all year round but is particularly well-suited for hot and humid climates or for individuals who tend to run hot during sleep.
Cotton: As a natural fibre Cotton bedding also offers excellent breathability, also making it a versatile choice for year-round comfort. Its natural absorbency helps wick away moisture, ensuring a dry and comfortable sleep environment.
Bamboo: The Bamboo plant is often praised for its rapid growth and minimal environmental footprint. It requires significantly less water and chemicals used to grow the plant, compared to conventional Cotton, making it a sustainable choice for eco-conscious consumers.
Cotton: While Cotton is a natural fibre, its cultivation often involves intensive water usage and chemical inputs. However, with the advent of organic and responsibly sourced Cotton, environmentally friendly options are becoming more accessible.

Bamboo: Bamboo bedlinen is well known for its durability and resistance to pilling, ensuring super long-lasting quality with proper care. It is machine washable and easy to maintain, making it convenient without compromising on the luxury feel. At Pure Zone we use a Twill weave throughout our Bamboo linens which give the fabric more stability and strength. This is one of the reason our Bamboo bedlinen should last for years to come.
Cotton: Likewise Cotton bedlinen is also renowned for its durability and easy maintenance. With proper care, Cotton bedlinen can withstand frequent washing and maintain their quality over time.

When it comes to aesthetic appeal, both Bamboo and Cotton bedlinen offer endless options to elevate your bedroom decor. Bamboo bedlinen will give you a sleek, modern look with a smooth and lustrous finish. Cotton bedlinen has a timeless appeal and crisp texture, lending an air of understated luxury to your bedroom.
