What is Mulberry silk?
A material that became popular in China thousands of years ago for its luxurious quality. Excellent for allergy sufferers.
Silk from the mulberry tree, which became popular in China thousands of years ago for its luxurious quality, comes from the Morus Alba tree. Mulberry silk is natural silk obtained from the cocoons of silkworms (Bombyx mori). The caterpillar of the moth Bombyx mori feeds exclusively on white mulberry leaves. Long fibers are then collected from the silkworm’s cocoon. These strong, clean, white, and individual fibers are then woven together to create silk fabric used for soft silk bedding or apparel textiles.
What are the advantages of Mulberry silk over regular silk?
Consistent texture and color: Mulberry silk is always pure white, with a smooth and uniform structure, ensuring a luxurious appearance and feel.
High quality and strength: It is stronger and more durable than other types of silk, lasting longer and reducing the risk of tearing.
Hypoallergenic: An excellent choice for allergy sufferers, as it contains natural protein that helps reduce the risk of allergic reactions.
Less odor: It has the advantage of not having a strong smell, which can be present in other silks.
Natural and eco-friendly: Produced naturally, with an environmentally friendly manufacturing process and no synthetic additives.
Best softness and comfort ratio: Soft and pleasant, offering greater comfort during sleep, and gentle on skin and hair.
Better moisture retention: Can hold up to one-third of its weight in moisture, so the fabric does not smell damp and dries quickly.
