Hospitals
Hospitals are at the forefront of the convergence of health and sustainability, making them ideal environments for adopting bamboo-based paper products.
Bamboo is far healthier than traditional papers. That's enough to make a full conversion right there. But there many additional benefits to making the switch to 100% sustainable and 100% compostable bamboo paper products.
Hospitals consume a high volume of disposable goods that aren't necessarily eco-friendly. We know that "recyclable" plastics are actually 350 year plastics that end up in landfills. A simple change can dramatically reduce your ESG corporate rating.
Restroom Paper Products
Bamboo toilet paper and hand towels offer significant advantages in both health and environmental aspects. Unlike traditional wood-based paper, bamboo paper contains no "forever chemicals" like BPAs or PFAs. Nor does it contain bleach, scents or dyes!
Additionally, bamboo paper uses Elementally Free Chlorine (EFC) in its production process rather than traditional bleaching methods, further reducing exposure to harmful chemicals.In terms of sustainability, hospitals can significantly reduce their environmental footprint by switching to bamboo products. Most importantly, bamboo paper is 100% tree-free, helping hospitals meet their sustainability and environmental, social, and governance (ESG) goals.
Beyond health and environmental benefits, bamboo paper rapidly dissolves in water, reducing the risk of clogs in hospital restrooms, which can disrupt operations and increase maintenance costs. Given the high volume of restroom usage in hospitals, this is a practical advantage that promotes both hygiene and operational efficiency.
Straws and Utensils
Another major area of sustainability improvement is with single use plastic and paper products. Our BambooM! straws are food safe, contain zero BPA's and PFAs that are in both plastic and paper straw alternatives.
BambooM! is our proprietary material that provides plastic durability but with the eco-friendly behaviour of paper. In truth, it's actually better than both! While plastic straws stay with us for 350 years and paper straws only last for 45 minutes, BambooM! straws last for weeks.
But can they bend? BambooM! is in fact the only bendable, sustainable and compostable straw available in the world today.
If the question is health, bamboo is the answer!
