Bamboo-carbon nano particles can absorb far infrared radiation from the environment, and emit them to help in cell activation, promotes blood circulation and metabolism in the long run.

Molecules can absorb and emit three kinds of energy: energy from the excitation of electrons, energy from rotational motion, and energy from vibrational motion. The first kind of energy is also exhibited by atoms, but the second and third are restricted to molecules. A molecule can rotate about its center of gravity (there are three mutually perpendicular axes through the center of gravity).

No, while it's true the sun's rays should be used judiciously, especially by fair-skinned people, the fact remains that infrared radiation is safe and promotes vital health. It is the harmful ultraviolet light that Sunscreen lotions block. There are many harmful rays given off by the sun but Far Infrared Rays are not among them. The energy is absolutely essential and beneficial for human beings and all living things in the world.

Infrared radiation is one of the many types of 'light' that comprise the electromagnetic spectrum . Infrared light is characterized by wavelengths that are longer than visible light (400-700 nanometers, or 0.4-0.7 micrometers; also denoted as microns). Astronomers generally divide the infrared portion of the electromagnetic spectrum into three regions: near-infrared (0.7-5 micrometers), mid-infrared (5-30 micrometers) and far infrared (30-1000 micrometers).

Eco-fabric is antibacterial, antifungal, breathable, cool, thermal regulating, reduces static electricity, absorbs and emits far infrared radiation, de-odorizes, green and washable.

Radioactive seeds emit low-energy gamma rays (which are like x-rays) and low energy beta particles (which are like electrons). However, the titanium shell of the seed filters out nearly all the emitted radiation except that which is desirable for the treatment of cancer. What the seed ultimately emits is predominantly a low-energy gamma ray that is a very weak type of x-ray.

Only certain parts of the electromagnetic spectrum (all light ranging from gamma ray to radio waves) can make it to the Earth's surface. Our atmosphere absorbs much of this light. Visible light, radio waves and a few small ranges of infrared wavelengths do make it through. Gamma rays, X-rays and most of the ultraviolet rays and infrared rays do not. This is why infrared telescopes are placed on high, dry mountains (like Mauna Kea in Hawaii) so that they can observe more infrared radiation.

How can the bio-ceramic emit far infrared? Will there be any side effects? While, the principle is very simple. It is a well-known fact that human body constantly emits thermo energy. When the bio-ceramic is stimulated by the thermo energy of human body, it converts it into the far infrared rays and reflects it back into the human body. So the far infrared ray emitted by the far infrared fiber is really powered by our own body and there are no known side effects.

Far infrared is a vital source of “light” energy that you're probably not getting enough of. It’s part of the electromagnetic spectrum of sunlight that’s safe and extremely beneficial to your health. If you want the scientific explanation, then click here.

Far Infrared Rays have the ability to penetrate, refract, radiate and reflect. The human body can absorb FIR because of its deep penetrating ability. When FIR penetrates through the skin to the subcutaneous tissues, it transforms from light energy in to heat energy. The thermal effect within the deep layers of tissues cause blood vessels in capillaries to dilate, promoting a better blood circulation and the heat produced helps to get rid of body toxins and metabolic wastes through sweating.

FAR Infrared is a light wave in the electromagnetic spectrum with a wavelength of 3 to 15 microns. It is a light invisible to our eyes, and can only be perceived by the sensation of heat that it produces. This term refers to the infrared emitted by Bioceramics. It can be measured using an emission radiometer capable of detecting waves greater than 3 micrometers.

Eco-fabric is fabric made by Greenyarn that contains nano-particles of bamboo-charcoal. (For more information go to technology section of this webpage)

It's energy penetrates, warms and increases the blood flow at the point of contact. It is most helpful for its capacity to break down (and relax) water and waste molecules for easier release of toxins into the pads. Acupeds utilizes the Far Infrared Radiation (FIR) effect of tourmaline. FIR has been researched for many years in the USA, Sweden, China and Japan.

Far Infrared Rays have nothing to do with either ultraviolet radiation (which gives you sunburn and damages your skin) or atomic radiation (the kind from a nuclear bomb.) Far Infrared Radiation is simply a form of energy that heats objects directly through a process called conversion, without having to heat the air in between. Our sun is the principal source of radiant energy that we enjoy daily (some more so than others).

Therapy, in medical term, means the act of remediation of a health problem, after the diagnosis. Far Infrared Therapy is a type of low energy therapy using light in the far infrared spectrum for the treatment of a health problem. Far Infrared Therapy is also sometimes abbreviated to FIR Therapy or Infrared Therapy for short. The light we see every day is actually a combination of many different types. All light is electro-magnetic waves. The wavelength of light determines its properties.

As we use only fiber that contain a high concentration of Bamboo-carbon nano particles, the fiber traps heat and thermal regulates better. Together with our weaving methods, Eco-fabric products not only feel dry during hot days, they also have great insulating effect of maintaining temperature in the cold.

Bamboo thrives naturally without using any pesticide and bamboo-carbon nano particles still retains its natural antibacterial, antifungal, bacteriostasis and deodorization properties. Eco-fabric contains bamboo-carbon nano particles hence also has those properties. As Eco-fabric has natural antibiosis function, it does not need antimicrobial agent to be antibacterial. It also should not cause any allergic reaction to the skin, unlike other fibers sterilized with antimicrobial agent.

Bamboo-carbon nano is a conductive material, and its presence in fabric will make Eco-fabric have a balanced charge. Test result show that when Eco-fabric is rubbed against polyester, nylon and other synthetic fabrics and surfaces, it will not have any charge buildup at all. Hence, the wearer of Eco-fabric products will not experience static electrical shock even in dry weather conditions.

Our computer controlled water management system uses an average of 25 - 45 gallons of fresh water for each wash, in addition to the 100 gallons of recycled water. Compare this to the 100 to 150 gallons of water used when washing a car by hand.
