Bamboo is a highly sustainable and renewable crop, growing to usability in as little as 3 years, and to full maturity in 5 years. Compare that to the 30 years it takes some hardwoods to grow!
For this reason, strand woven bamboo has become a hugely popular alternative to timber flooring, as we strive to look after our planet. Strand woven bamboo is vastly different from traditional bamboo flooring. While the older style of bamboo flooring was made up from strips of bamboo bonded together, which was very easy to damage, strand woven bamboo uses a completely different process.
The bamboo crop is shredded into fibres, and then compressed and bonded back together under high pressure to form a new, stronger sheet of bamboo which is then manufactured into planks. Strand woven bamboo is also extremely moisture resistant, both naturally and due to the manufacturing process, which is a great quality for a timber floor.
Perhaps the best thing about strand woven bamboo is the price! Nestled in between laminate and timber price points, it provides a natural floor covering at a great price.
