Breathability and Temperature Regulation
Bamboo satin :
Bamboo is naturally breathable, helping to regulate temperature and absorb moisture. Ideal for hot climates.
Cotton Satin :
Cotton is generally breathable, but thermal regulation depends on the type of cotton and the weave used.
Hypoallergenic properties
Bamboo satin :
Thanks to its natural antibacterial properties, bamboo satin is beneficial for people who are sensitive to allergens. Our bamboo fibre is hypoallergenic, so sleepers can enjoy a healthy, restful night's sleep.
Cotton Satin :
Cotton is generally hypoallergenic thanks to treatments during production. The durability of the hypoallergenic properties depends on the treatment and the type of cotton.
Durability and maintenance
Bamboo satin :
Bamboo is often considered a sustainable resource. The durability of our bamboo satin sheets has been proven. Comptoir du Bambou sheets have been extensively tested in industrial laundries. They are 3 times more resistant than cotton sateen sheets.
Cotton Satin :
Durability depends on the type of cotton used, and special care may be required for certain types of cotton. Like all cotton items, cotton satin will quickly become rough and require extra care, particularly to remove stains.

The technologies that Comptoir du Bambou uses have made it possible to develop the very first bamboo satin, a luxurious and silky fibre with exceptional properties: the linen is soft, ultra comfortable, breathable and durable. Bamboo Sateen is made from the Fibre B, outperforms cotton sateen bed sheets thanks to the wonderful properties of bamboo.
The properties of bamboo are preserved in the fibre as it is one of the few fibres that can absorb moisture while adapting to the ambient temperature.
The bamboo satin sheets will keep you cool in the summer and warm in the winter without suffocating you with heat.
Bamboo satin also preserves the original virtues of bamboo. More resistant, Comptoir du Bambou linen lasts up to 3 times longer than cotton and consumes 5 times less resources than cotton.
While many textiles, including cotton, use chemical anti-microbes to kill bacteria, bamboo is also naturally anti-bacterial. Some American studies show that bamboo sateen helps create a healthy atmosphere and restful sleep because of its anti-microbial action.
In addition, the softness of bamboo fibre and bamboo satin helps to reduce symptoms such as eczema.
