The story behind Bambu
INSPIRED BY NATURE
BAMBU
Founders Jeff Delkin & Rachel Speth were born in Portland, Oregon, an area that prides itself on local, homegrown and eco-friendly values. When they relocated to China for work - a place often criticised for its manufacturing processes - they took their home values with them. They wanted to find a way of doing things differently, creating interest and excitement in sustainable materials, whilst adhering to ethical business practices.
Jeff & Rachel's goal was to reduce the use and reliance on plastic by providing people with beautiful, non-toxic products made from nature. Today they continue to focus on the same key values, working in China alongside their team and producer groups to ensure the highest quality standards using locally and thoughtfully sourced materials and practices. The primary material they work with is bamboo – an endlessly renewable resource that grows very fast without the need for pesticides or fertilisers – and they also work with other sustainable materials such as cork and organic cotton.
With Jeff's background in marketing and Rachel's product development experience, the couple launched a range of bamboo products for the kitchen in 2003. Since then they have built a brand in which sustainability goes beyond the balance between what they take from the earth and what they return to it, and in January 2018 the company officially became B Corp™ certified. B Corp, short for “Benefit Corporation“, refers to a company known to have a beneficial impact on the world, whilst being profitable.
Delighted with the handkerchiefs. Great concept hope you do well going forward. Thanks
I was pleased to be offered unscented sheets and have since been pleased with their performance.
Website easy to negotiate and also pleased to use a UK firm.
So all round pretty pleased.
I recently came across green tulip; recommended by a friend. I was delighted by the products I saw and placed a gift order immediately. I received an incredibly personalised note in response to my order; even making me aware I had added a gift box to an already boxed product and an offer to refund me the gift box; a very honest and trusted exchange. Upon arrival the gift was magnificent quality.
Would recommend to everyone
Wow, I was blown away by the quality of the two makeup bags that I ordered. The material is such lovely quality, and the colours are stunning. I'm absolutely thrilled with my items. They were really nice packed too, which made them extra special to open
