Are Viscose from Bamboo Sheets Cooling?

You shouldn't have to compromise on a good night's sleep, and comfortable sheets play a huge role in ensuring your rest is deep and restorative--especially when it's hot. When the temperatures rise, the type of sheets you use for your bedding can make all the difference for your comfort. Certain types of fabric have natural properties that allow them to keep you cool better than others, and Viscose from Bamboo fabric is one of the very best materials to transform your night from stifling to serene.

So what is it about Bamboo that makes it so good at keeping you cool?

Other types of fabrics, especially synthetic ones, have fibers that are very close-knit, with no gaps for air to pass through. This means that when your body heats up, your sweat absorbs into this type of fiber and becomes trapped in the material, preventing your sweat from evaporating and allowing your body to naturally cool itself. Instead, the trapped moisture reflects body heat back to onto your skin, which creates that muggy, humid feeling that will have you kicking off your sheets in sweaty frustration.

Bamboo, on the other hand, is naturally moisture-wicking thanks to its micro-porous fibre structure of tiny gaps that allow air to circulate to and from your body. It's also a quick-drying fabric, so moisture and heat don't get trapped next to your body, meaning you sweat less, and you sleep more comfortably.

Bamboo sheets are an ideal choice for your summertime bedding or if you live in a warm climate year round. They're also  great for helping with hot flashes , especially when paired with lightweight bamboo viscose pajamas. 

If you naturally run on the colder side, you may be wondering if bamboo viscose bedding is for you, since it has such great cooling properties. The answer is yes! Bamboo fabric isn't just cooling, it is thermoregulating, which means it helps your body maintain an ideal temperature. Its hollow fibers and ventilation let warm air escape when you're hot, but it also insulates by holding warm air close to your body when it's cold. Bamboo is simply excellent at temperature control. A bamboo viscose sheet or blanket will still keep you warm, but you should prevent you from overheating.

It's always a struggle to sleep when the temperature isn't cooperating, and since our mission at Cozy Earth is to help you make the comfiest, coziest place to relax at the end of the day, our temperature-regulating bamboo viscose sheets are the perfect choice for year-round comfort and contented sleep.

Viscose from bamboo comforters are popular for the same reason. They offer excellent temperature- regulating features that wick away excess heat, meaning sleepers experience consistency throughout the night, leading to longer, more continuous sleep.
