Our pillows are not only made in the USA, but grown here as well. Bamboo is the fastest-growing and most sustainable plant source available. Bamboo doesn't need any pesticides or chemicals to grow, so our product is free of any substances that could be harmful or irritate your skin. Our outer fabric consists of three layers woven together to create a breathable, comfortable surface for you to lay your head on. Due to this, you'll never feel too hot or be too cold. The interior of the pillow is made from blended Memory-Foam. We did this to make it machine-washable and dryer-safe. If the foam pieces were any bigger, they wouldn't dry well; any smaller, and they'd dissolve in the wash. Bamboo is an ideal resource and material. Bamboo has many advantages as a natural fiber as well as being one of the most sustainable resources available. Reaching up to 35 meters tall, bamboos are the largest members of the grass family. With the high growth rate of bamboo and the fact that bamboo can grow in such diverse climates bamboo plants are a sustainable and versatile resource. As a textile fiber bamboo is both resilient and durable. In studies comparing it to cotton and polyester, it is found to have a high breaking tenacity, better moisture wicking properties, and better moisture absorption. These benefits became a clear as we tested out pillows against other, more synthetic pillows. In addition to the sustainability and natural benefits as a textile, bamboo harvesting helps support impoverished regions of the world because it can be cultivated quickly and is a natural cash crop.
