• Less discoloration due to ultraviolet rays.
• Static electricity is difficult to generate.
• It expands and contracts a little when it gets wet.
• High cost (because only a few companies in the world manufacture cupra).

So what is Bemberg?

It is also known by the name “Bemberg,” which comes from the German company Bemberg, which developed the technology for cupro.

Bemberg industrialized and commercialized cupro in 1919.

In Japan, Asahi Kasei introduced the technology in 1928, and started production in 1931.
