Bamboo is a natural renewable resource and probably the fastest growing plant on earth, growing over 30% faster than the fastest growing tree. Certain species can grow up to 1 meter a day.

Bamboo also recycles a huge quantity of CO2 and produces 35% more oxygen than a tree in the same environment.

Bamboo stabilizes soil. Its roots can extend up to 200 kilometer per hectare, which fights the erosion of fragile grounds.

Bamboo is very resistant: it can be grown naturally without pesticides or fertilizers, and it grows in all four corners of the world.

With the help of designer Boo Louis & team a whole range of products was developed in various colors and finishes.

Ekobo chose bamboo, for reasons of aesthetics, ecology and ethics as bamboo is a fast growing renewable plant. In consequence all production takes place in Vietnam where Eboko assures fair and exemplary working conditions.

Each product is hand-crafted. Circular forms are made from an ancient technique called spun bamboo. Bamboo columns are cut lengthwise with a machete into fine strips. The strips are then coiled into a spiral around a mold. A glue made from the bread tree and bamboo sawdust is used to assemble the strips. Using its natural form, tubular products are cut horizontally from a bamboo column. Each object is then sanded, polished, and hand-painted, before being wrapped in recycled packaging.
