About Bamboo Flooring
Bamboo, which is actually a grass, grows so quickly that it’s ready for
harvest in just a few years. Rather than culling forests that take decades to
develop, responsible consumers appreciate that bamboo matures to a height of
about 50 feet in as little as three years. When bamboo is harvested, the stalk
continues to grow, so replanting is not required.
If deforestation worries you, bamboo is an ideal choice. Bamboo flooring comes
mainly from controlled bamboo forests in China. When you choose a floor made
from this material, not only does it look good – it also makes you feel good,
as you’ll know that you haven’t sacrificed already jeopardized rainforests for
style.
If you’re considering bamboo flooring, you’ll be pleased to know that while
it’s a responsible home renovation choice, you won’t be giving up quality and
style for your ethics. Bamboo makes for extremely durable flooring, and is
harder than many solid woods, so it stands up even better to wear, scuffs, and
denting than the wood floors you’re used to. Bamboo is more durable than many
oak, walnut, and maple varieties.
Since bamboo is a tropical plant, it’s naturally resistant to moisture and
humidity. It can withstand expansion and contraction much better than many
solid woods, and holds up to stains and household spills very well.
Going for a bamboo floor won’t mean sacrificing the array of colours that solid
woods offer. Bamboo is a natural
fibre, colour and grain variations naturally occur.
Tong Ling Bamboo
Flooring is
available in a variety of hues.
Bamboo flooring is also available with the design of the nodes or connective
joints characteristic of this plant. Some home decorators appreciate the
distinctiveness these nodes bring to a floor, but if that isn’t you, choose
bamboo flooring that doesn’t show them.

About Strand Woven Bamboo Flooring
Strand woven bamboo is
considered the most stable natural wood known for flooring, and one of the
hardest woods known to exist. Strand woven bamboo is made by compressing
strands of the bamboo fibers under intense pressure, while using a
heat-sensitive low-VOC adhesive. Then the planks are milled with an exact
fitting four sided tongue and groove. A slight micro-bevel edge gives
definition to each plank. Strand woven bamboo is extremely exotic and
rich looking - through woven process, the consistency found in the
traditional bamboo styles is completely removed. It makes this beautiful new floor ideal
for any high traffic, high wear setting.

Bamboo Flooring help to save our
mother
earth from global warming
Today's very real environmental threats,
particularly global warming, require all of us to be proactive in our
march to protect our delicate ecosystems. It's not as monumental a task as
one would think. If we all do a little, in any way we can, it will be a
step in the right direction. We wanted to give the global economy an
alternative away from deforestation for flooring, by providing these goods
in a beautiful, sustainable material, Bamboo.
Bamboo is actually not a wood but a grass, and it grows fast and is ever
renewing itself. Bamboo takes in greenhouse gasses, sequesters nitrogen
and produces 35% more oxygen than an equivalent stand of trees, making it
an efficient replenisher of fresh air. Imagine that, flooring and
accessories that will help save our atmosphere!
Bamboo is arguably one of the world's best sustainable resources with a
growth rate of up to 3 feet or more per day. Bamboo can be harvested in
4-5 years unlike traditional hardwoods that can take up to 50-75 years.
Bamboo also stabilizes the earth with its erosion preventing roots, and
improves the health of the soil.
Our Bamboo apparel is also good for our ecosystems because Bamboo does not
require pesticides, insecticides, or fertilizers, and does not involve the
use of genetically modified organisms (GMOs).
For all these reasons, we must and we can,
shift away from using hardwoods in our flooring. Bamboo offers an amazing
alternative that will help in our march to stop global warming.
