About Bamboo

Bamboo is one of the most beautiful, long-lasting, environmentally friendly and unique products in the market today. Every day more people are discovering the seemingly endless benefits of bamboo molding because of its durability, stability, exotic appearance and environmentally friendly nature.

Our pre-finished bamboo molding has many enduring qualities:

• Factory applied multi-coat aluminum oxide finish
• Easy to maintain and clean—never needs waxing
• Lifetime structure/ 10-year finish warranty
• Natural, elegant and beautiful
• Ecologically friendly
• Easy to install (nail or glue)
• Competitively priced
• 25% harder than Red Oak, 12% harder than Rock Maple
• More dimensionally stable than commonly used wood, including oak and maple
• High quality, tongue and groove, precision-milled

Our bamboo pre-finished molding not only protects the environment, but also provides beautiful products that rival the tensile strength of steel. Bamboo is attractive as a building material because it is very hard and strong. Bamboo is more dimensionally stable (less expansion and contraction) than many commonly used wood flooring options, including oak and maple.

Bamboo's long life makes it a Chinese symbol of long life, while in India it is a symbol of friendship. Its rare blossoming has led to the flowers' being regarded as a sign of impending famine. Several Asian cultures, including that of the Andaman Islands, believe that humanity emerged from a bamboo stem. Malaysian legends include the story of a man who dreams of a beautiful woman while sleeping under a bamboo plant; he wakes up and breaks the bamboo stem, discovering the woman inside. In the Philippines, bamboo crosses are used as a good luck charm by farmers. In Japan, a bamboo forest sometimes surrounds a Shinto shrine as part of a sacred barrier against evils. Also, bamboo is considered second in the rank in the order of "Matsu (pine wood), Take (bamboo), Ume (plum)" and this order is used when ordering a sushi course or getting a room in a traditional Ryokan inn. Hawaiian bamboo ('ohe) is a kinolau or body form of the Polynesian creator god Kane.

In Chinese culture, the bamboo (竹), along with plums (梅), orchids (蘭), and chrysanthemum (菊) are all held in high esteem and are collectively referred as the "the four of great nobility" (四君子). Each plant represents a particular aspect of a noble person in Confucian ideology.
