At RelaksoHome, we’ve decided to turn to natural materials that have been used for centuries: Bamboo and Linen. While linen, obtained from the flax plant, has been used for clothing for thousands of years, it is only since the early 2000s that bamboo was made viable for clothing, thanks to research and new technologies.
Combined together, these two plants offer invaluable advantages on an environmental perspective. Here are a few highlights:
- Unlike cotton, both plants can grow free of chemicals, fertilizers and pesticides, which helps improve soil and air quality.
- Bamboo and linen use a 1/3 less water than cotton to grow, which increases water supply for other usage.
- Their transformation process uses less energy than other fibers, which decreases the emission of greenhouse gasses.
By using these two materials, we end up with a product of a high ecological value that contributes in reducing soil, water and air pollution.
“Lyocell” is actually a term used to describe the process a natural fibre goes through when transformed from a tree into a fabric.
Unlike other processes, Lyocell specifically designates a closed-loop process that recovers and reuses up to 99% of the water and the organic compound needed, so no water is wasted unnecessarily. And YES: you have just read “organic compound”. That’s because no hazardous chemicals are involved in this process. Indeed, Lyocell is actually one of the MOST sustainable processes that exists.
Our bamboo and linen bed sheets are not only highly breathable, but also antibacterial and hypoallergenic by nature. This means that people suffering from skin problems will see their skin appearance improve. This is not only because your skin will “breathe better”, but because the soft texture of the bed sheets and pillows are naturally soothing to your skin.
The bed sheets are also very hygienic as they do not retain odours and stains can easily be washed away. Your bed sheets will smell well and look nice.
Our Lyocell Bamboo and Linen bed sheets offer a perfect balance:
1. Unlike 100% linen bed sheets, our bed sheets do not wrinkle easily and;
2. unlike 100% bamboo bed sheets, they do not look super shiny.
With our blend, you obtain a perfect look with a nice and soft touch. You get all the advantages of both fibres, without the inconveniences!

Nowadays, more than 85% of the world’s home textile is produced in the Asia-Pacific region, where working conditions and environmental standards can be questioned.
One of the reasons why we turned to Portugal to manufacture our product is because we wanted to partner with a country that share similar values in terms of labour and environmental standards. This way, we rest assured that workers choose their employment freely and that child labour is out of question.
Another reason why we turned to Portugal to manufacture our product is for their strong tradition and reputation. Indeed, Portugal has been known for centuries for offering the highest and finest quality in the home textile industry.
At the beginning of this project, we visited many facilities and met with skilled workers and professionals who transmitted us their passion and knowledge about their work. Our visits allowed us to bond with people who became passionate about our project and vision. They also invested a lot of their time and efforts to make our project possible. Feeling supported is crucial to ensure the continuity of our project, and we found it with our partner.
And… last but not the least: Portugal is among the top countries in the world committed to increase its renewable energy capacities. In fact, a great portion of the energy used for the manufacturing of our product comes from renewable energy. This is another good eco friendly reason to love our product!
For us, this project is very special and we wanted to spread our joy...
Even if our product is made with the highest sustainable standards, we wanted to do something extra for the planet. For this reason, we've decided to partner with an NGO and plant a tree for each support received.
This way, we help reducing our carbon footprint and contribute to reforest areas of the world that most need it. Because together, we can achieve great things. :-)
Because we are concerned about the future of our planet, our bed sheets will be carefully delivered to you in an elegant and eco-friendly packaging, free of plastic. This way, we make sure your experience is consistent with our values. :-)
We'll email you a survey after the campaign to get your shipping address, colour and size preferences.
Feel free to ask us if you need help with your size, note that there we will be more sizes available.
Elegant and minimalist, our colours will stay intact wash after wash! Our three launch colours are: WHITE, LIGHT GREY AND AQUA GREEN.
Please note that it is one colour per set. If you choose to buy two sets, then you'll get to choose two different colours (and can mix them at home after!).
At the end of the campaign, you will be able to choose your preferred colour through the survey that will be sent to you.
*Please note the colours may differ from one device to another depending on the calibration of your screen.
