Bamboo has been used in China for over 5000 years, and it is easy to see why. It is reputed to be superior in quality, and more durable than most hard wood timber floors. Quiet and warm to walk on, it is extremely stable in both dry and humid conditions.
Bamboo is allergy free, environmentally friendly and repels termites. The boards are coated with three coats of a very resilient and hardwearing Polyurethane and UV cured, it shows amazing stamina for commercial and high activity areas. Also very popular because it doesn’t react to water, as do some timbers, bamboo is resilient to changes in temperature, making it the ideal choice for wet areas in the home.
Bamboo is becoming increasingly popular with architects and interior designers because it is lightweight and has unique textures and colours.
The Bamboo flooring is ideal for refurbishment because it arrives as a finished product already coated so there is no unnecessary mess and dangerous fumes normally associated with onsite sanding and polishing and can be laid over existing flat floor tiles.
WHY BAMBOO
• Environmentally sustainable - Bamboo flooring is an attractive alternative to wood floors, and is the product derived from the forests of a fully sustainable, environmentally friendly and rapidly growing renewable resource.
• Easy installation - Bamboo flooring compares favourably with traditional solid select timber floors and given it is already sanded and finished with 3 to 6 durable UV coatings, is capable of being quickly installed ready for use, has no toxic fumes and minimal disruption.
• Coupled with its price advantage, Bamboo products are creating significant interest for their aesthetic and other performance qualities over existing hard wood alternatives. In summary, Bamboo provides a highly competitive commercial product.
