Known as the softest bedding on the planet, the Cariloha Bamboo comforter is 100 percent viscose because of its most flexible product, bamboo — a plant previously used to make paper.

Thanks to new technologies, bamboo fibers are now being processed into thin strands, suitable for weaving into one of the smoothest fabrics on the planet. Bamboo's viscosity results in an incredibly soft, smooth material that is naturally thermal regulating and moisture-wicking. It is ideal for warm or cold sleepers. This type of fabric is increasingly popular in a variety of bedding products due to its unbeatable softness and smooth, cool texture. It is also a clean, breathable fabric that is odor, mold, and mildew resistant.

The use of bamboo results in a lush, lovely fabric that drapes beautifully and has a unique glowing sheen. This comforter provides not only softness to the touch but is also lovely in appearance, for use with or without a duvet cover. It is an ideal choice for natural bedding with a luxurious feel.

Bamboo is a renewable resource, so you can rest easy, knowing that the breathable, natural fabric offering you such comfort is also eco-friendly.
