Bamboo Tree

Bamboo Hardwood Flooring is designed and manufactured in 3 configurations; flat pressed, side pressed, and woven strand.  The strips used in the side and flat press configurations are precision milled to a .5 centimeter thickness to ensure an optimum balance of forces in the finished board.  The woven strand involves the pressing of bamboo fibers creating an extremely dense flooring material.  To ensure dimensional stability, this material is precision milled with tongue and groove on the sides as well as the ends.  It can be top-nailed or glued-down.  Our Engineered Bamboo floors can also be installed using the floating method.  There is no overlapping of the strips in the three layers.  Overlapping strips in the finished board, the result of a manufacturing technique that cuts many boards from a large laminated sheets, is a common practice that increases the potential for distortion and de lamination in the finished board.  The flat pressed style flooring presents as quite visibly "open" with the nodes appearing as randomly placed delicate brush strokes.  The side pressed material is denser in appearance, some would say less delicate.  The choice is a matter of style with consumer interest in each type being about equal.

Botanically, Bamboo is not a wood at all, but rather a grass.  Bamboo is attractive as a building material because it is hard, strong and dimensionally stable.  Environmentally, it is hard to argue with a wood substitute that matures in 4 - 5 years, regenerates without the need for replanting, and requires no fertilization or pesticides.
