At Eureco, there are three questions our customers ask us all the time:

• Are Bamboo Towels more absorbent than Cotton Towels?
• Do Bamboo Towels absorb more quickly than Cotton Towels?
• Do Bamboo Towels take longer to dry than Cotton Towels?

Sometimes the answer is a little more complicated than a simple yes or no, so I thought I’d post a blog to explain.

I’ve even included the results of some of the testing I’ve had done along the way.

January is always an interesting time as we take time to review the year that was 2010 and prepare for what is looking as though it will be an increasingly challenging year ahead.

There have been some dramatic developments in the global cotton markets which are set to impact Eureco over the coming year. The Pakistani floods of 2010 destroyed over 3000 km2 (that’s 30%) of their cotton crop. According to the Pakistan Cotton Ginners Association over 2 million bales of cotton were destroyed which has led to an increase in the global commodities price with cotton now trading at all time high prices.

Lots has been happening at Eureco! We have been busy following up our awesome expo success, and then preparing for the next big event - Christmas!

When Branson is cruising around the Caribbean, he uses his $30 million superyacht the Necker Belle for transport.

The Necker Belle is kitted out with Eureco's plush bamboo towels. When the boat was undergoing a refit last year, Eureco was approached to supply the towels, because they fit the criteria for being both eco and luxurious.

Yes, that's right, Eureco's online store is turning one and we are slashing prices across the entire range as a birthday gift for all our customers!

Better than a bunnings voucher, buy dad a bamboo bath robe for Father's Day! Especially as Eureco is offering 25% off bamboo robes, just for your gift buying needs.

I was going to say Eureco merely survived the Organic Expo and Green show held last weekend at the Sydney Convention Centre. But the truth is that Eureco were an outstanding success!

We are crazily busy preparing for the Organic Expo where we will make our stunning expo debut this Friday 20th August at the Sydney Convention Centre. The expo is open to the public over the weekend (Sat 21-Sun 22) and we want to see you there!!!

The Organic Expo is being held in Sydney at the Convention Centre from August 20-22 and Eureco will be there! To celebrate Eureco's expo debut, we are holding a competition where you can win one of 10 passes to the expo! All you have to do is email megan@eureco.com.au and tell us why you love Eureco. Be creative! Winning entries will be blogged for the world to see! See further details below...

So we think you should all come to the Organic Expo to visit the Eureco stand, of course. However, to be fair, the Organic Expo is much more than just Eureco, in fact there will be over 180 other exciting exhibitors there!

(In case you have been hiding under a rock, the Organic Expo will be held at the Sydney Convention Centre from 20-22 August.)
