BAMBOO FLOORING

Bamboo flooring is uniquely different to traditional hardwood flooring with unsurpassed elegant style, durability & exceptional beauty, whilst offering peace of mind backed by our Manufacturer’s Australian warranty.
 
RENEWABLE RESOURCE –  Bamboo is actually a giant grass that has been around for 200 million years which after full growth before harvesting is denser and stronger than traditional hardwoods.  A truly natural renewable resource that replaces itself every 5-6 years providing food, employment and housing.
 
STRENGTH & DURABILITY – one of the strongest building materials in the world with tensile strength per 28,000 per square inch rivaling steel at 23,000.  It’s important when choosing your floor to consider the hardness.  A Janka rating measures the force required to dent timber, the Moso Strand Woven Bamboo is the second hardest flooring in the world.
 
STYLE – special grains and colours are represented by the very distinctive styles and options available, each uniquely different.
 
COLOUR – from a process called carbonization.  Bamboo is similar to sugar cane and is coloured by a steaming process during manufacturing, like burning the sugar or caramelizing in cooking terms. This process sets the colour so that later when you do need to re-sand the colour remains the same.  It is not a stain but ‘carbonised’ or if you like colour all through the boards.
 
FINISHES – pre-finished or unfinished.  Factory finished or raw, the choice is yours.  Finishes can be Matt, Semi-Gloss, High-Gloss ready to walk on after installation, or maybe you would prefer raw unfinished boards for those who like the traditional method polishing on site, these boards can also be waxed or tung oiled.
 
PROCESS – 1 Bamboo harvesting → 2 Skin/Inside Knot Removable → 3. Anti-Insect Treatment & Bleaching → 4. Drying → 5. Veneering → 6. Cutting → 7. Planing  → 8. Sizing → 9. Molding → 10. Sanding → 11. Coating → 12. Colour separation → 13. Packing → 14. Storing
 
COMPARABLE – in price to traditional hardwood flooring. The properties of bamboo that make it regenerate rapidly make it a serious alternative, saving our Australian forests for future generations.
 
TERMITE RESISTANCE – 99.9% retardant against known insects.
 
QUALITY & CONFIDENCE – exceeds the very stringent European and Japanese E1 formaldehyde emission standard, quality tested and certified to comply with international quality standards ISO 9001 and environmental standards ISO 14001.
Our manufacturing factory is now producing bamboo products using  E0 zero urea formaldehyde free adhesive and finishes.
