Dublin Based Kokoro Zenwear Raises the Standard for Sustainable Eco-Fashion with Bamboo Fashion Collection

The Dublin-based fashion brand offers a luxurious alternative to cotton and silk that doesn’t cost the earth. Kokoro Zenwear’s bamboo silk and bamboo sport collection is 100% ECO Certified and OEKO- TEX Certified sustainable organic.

Eco-conscious fashionistas now have a sustainable alternative to cotton and silk garments with the luxurious bamboo fashion collection from Dublin-based company, Kokoro Zenwear.

Cotton and silk are two popular natural fibres used in garment manufacturing. However, the production processes used to produce the fabrics are neither eco-friendly nor sustainable. Silk is a luxurious fabric, but it takes up to 2500 silkworms to produce one pound of raw silk. And since silkworms only eat mulberry leaves, it is a significant drain on natural resources. As it relates to cotton, the plants require 29.000 litres of water to grow - the same amount that one person would drink in 27 years.

Conversely, not only is bamboo a renewable resource, it requires very little water and can grow up to 4.5 ft per day. What’s more is that fabrics made from bamboo are softer and more comfortable than 1000 thread count Egyptian cotton.
