Brand Rating
Boody
Boody makes bamboo viscose underwear and basics that are genuinely soft and well-priced (comparable to major high-street brands). They hold OEKO-TEX Standard 100 and FSC certifications for their bamboo sourcing. However, "bamboo" fabric is actually viscose/rayon processed with chemicals — they're transparent about this but the marketing can mislead casual shoppers. No B Corp certification yet. Excellent value-for-sustainability ratio.

Sustainability Breakdown
FSC-certified bamboo is a renewable, fast-regenerating crop; viscose production without FSC would risk forest ecosystems.
Durable everyday basics, but no take-back or repair programme; bamboo viscose is not readily recyclable in mainstream textile streams.
Bamboo farming is fast-growing and low-input, but converting it to viscose is energy- and chemical-intensive; no public carbon targets.
OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certified (no harmful substances in finished garments) and FSC-certified bamboo sourcing.
FSC-certified sourcing and established manufacturing partners in Asia; not B Corp certified; limited public factory list.
