# Bamboo Baby Products Bum Boosa Uses Botanical Ingredients for Eco-Friendlier Goods By Tiana Reid | Published 2013-01-11 | Social Good Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bum-boosa References: [pinterest](http://pinterest.com/bumboosa/) & [bumboosabambooproducts](http://bumboosabambooproducts.com/) The first thing that comes to mind when coming across Bum Boosa is whatever does it mean? "Choosing a great name was important to us. People often ask us where the name Bum Boosa comes from," writes the certified B Corporation on its website. "We took the common Latin name for the bamboo genus -- bambusa -- and made a play on it." The products themselves range from baby wipes, bathroom tissue and diaper rash ointment to gift bags and upcycled tote-like bags. The products are biodegradable and hypoallergenic, which goes along with the social business' vision of having healthy families and a healthy world. The latter comes through their reforestation initiatives, for instance, with the non-profit organization Trees for the Future through which they've planed over 47,000 trees around the world. **Contact Information** Bum Boosa [website](http://bumboosabambooproducts.com/) Bum Boosa on [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/BumBoosa) Bum Boosa on [Twitter](https://twitter.com/bumboosa) Bum Boosa on [YouTube](http://www.youtube.com/user/Bumboosa) Bum Boosa on [Pinterest](http://pinterest.com/bumboosa/) ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.8/10 - Popularity: 14% | Activity: 32% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Gen Alpha - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Social Good](https://www.trendhunter.com/socialgood) > [Social Business](https://www.trendhunter.com/socialbusiness) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Eco-friendly Baby Products:** Bum Boosa's use of botanical ingredients and biodegradable materials in their baby products reflects the growing demand for eco-friendly options in the baby care industry. - **Sustainable Packaging:** Bum Boosa's upcycled tote-like bags and commitment to reforestation initiatives highlight the trend of using sustainable packaging in the consumer goods industry. - **Socially Responsible Business:** Bum Boosa's partnership with Trees for the Future and their mission of promoting healthy families and a healthy world exemplify the trend of socially responsible business practices. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Baby Care:** The eco-friendly and hypoallergenic baby wipes and diaper rash ointment from Bum Boosa cater to the growing market for natural and sustainable baby care products. - **Consumer Goods:** Bum Boosa's use of botanical ingredients and their commitment to sustainable packaging align with the increasing consumer demand for eco-friendly and socially responsible products. - **Non-profit Organizations:** Bum Boosa's collaboration with Trees for the Future showcases the potential for non-profit organizations to partner with businesses for environmental and social causes. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Chemical-Free Toilet Papers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bampoo-premium-toilet-paper.md) - [Sustainable Toilet Paper Brands](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sustainable-toilet-paper.md) - [Soothing Sustainable Bamboo Tissues](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bamboo-balsam-tissues.md) - [Minimally Packaged Cosmetic Wipes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-cheeky-panda-dry-wipes.md) - [Gentle Baby Wipes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/parasol-co.md) - [Sustainable Anti-Bacterial Wipes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/biom.md) - [Ultra-Thick Sustainable Baby Wipes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/99-waterbased.md) - [Japanese Baby Care Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/yoboo.md) - [Recycled Bamboo Toilet Papers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rollieco.md)
