Bamboo Charcoal technology utilizes the highly porous nature of carbon to greatly increase the surface area of the fabric. In some cases, the surface area of the product may equate to a football field. Consequently, moisture has more space to wick, disperse, and dry more quickly. Studies show that Bamboo technology achieves a 50-percent increase in moisture transfer compared to standard performance fabrics. The increased surface area of the treated fabric also absorbs and decomposes odor-causing molecules. As a serious added bonus, the same porous structure of the molecules traps harmful UV rays.
