Though a bamboo towel might be a bit more expensive, there are several clear benefits it possesses over the common cotton towel.  First, bamboo fabric has the unique ability to absorb moisture and water more efficiently.  This is a natural quality of the bamboo from which the fabric is made, and compared to your standard cotton towel, will absorb more liquid and dry out faster because of its porous nature, and ability to breathe.  In addition to the obvious benefit, you can rest assured that bamboo towels were made through environmentally sound methods.  This means that the bamboo itself, the manner in which it was harvested, and the process in which it was made into fabric and dyed was natural, and throughout no chemicals or toxins were used. 

When you purchase a bamboo towel, you are not only receiving a more quality product, but helping the environment.  It’s a win-win situation.
