From Joesph in Missouri:

I’m a bamboo grower in Missouri, I have heard of the myriad of uses of bamboo, shirts was a new one for me.  I’m just inquiring about how the shirts are made, not to start up a biz making shirts, but just to learn a little bit more about the wonderful plants we love so much.  Thanks,   Joe:)

Hello Joseph,
Thank you for your interest in our products. The process for bamboo fiber is very similar to the rayon process. The bamboo is extruded from the green stalks. The pulp is then processed through a hydrolysis-alkalization and multi-phase bleaching technique where the bamboo is boiled and steamed until it turns into a paste; it is then spun into a yarn. China actually has the international patent on this process.

Please let us know if you have any additional questions.
