Bamboo is an extremely viable replacement for wood. Bamboo is a highly renewable resource that is able to grow to maturity within 3 to 5 years making it much more renewable and environmentally friendly than hardwood trees. It is also extremely strong and durable, making it a good choice for decking – especially with the ever-so unreliable climate of the UK!

Reasons for choosing bamboo products over traditional timber products are;

    • No illegal logging or destroying forests.
    • Helps prevent global warming and climate change.
    • No unpleasant odours.
    • Kiln dried, bamboo has a very low moisture content.
    • Bamboo is naturally very strong and durable with high tensile strength similar to steel.
    • All our bamboo products are non toxic and non hazardous to the environment.
    • Resistant to rot, mould and mildew.
    • No splinters or leaching.
    • High resistance to warping and twisting.
    • Superior density and strength to most timber, being harder than teak, ipe, oak and maple species.
    • Bamboo has high dimensional stability, meaning less swelling, cupping and shrinkage.
    • Bamboo is lighter in weight, easy to handle and install using our hidden fastener system.
    • Bamboo is easy to maintain, colour and seal.
