Why choose bamboo furniture

Bamboo furniture has an exotic look that appeals to many. Bamboo furniture can be both indoor and outdoor. As well as aesthetics, bamboo has many other qualities that make bamboo a great choice.

Properties of bamboo

Bamboo is a fast-growing woody species. It grows 10 times faster than most hardwood species. It is compared to hardwood because it is very hard. Studies have shown that ordinary bamboo is 20% harder than red oak, but there are also species that are 100% harder.

Another very important characteristic of bamboo is stability. Unlike other wood species it does not change its size due to atmospheric humidity, it does not vary in size due to climate changes. It stands up very well outdoors in both humid and dry air, making it a very good choice for outdoor furniture.

Bamboo fiber is very tough, very strong. The tensile strength of bamboo is proven to be higher than that of steel. Bamboo fibers are used together with fiberglass or other materials to make very strong and stable composite materials. This extraordinary strength is due to the fact that bamboo grows straight and tall, without branching. No other species grows like this. Even if it has those joints, they are dense and do not weaken the bamboo's structure.

Uses of bamboo

Bamboo can be used as such to make furniture, or it can be made into panels that are similar to solid wood, but much stronger and tougher. Because of this hardness, bamboo panels are used for kitchen worktops or chopping boards. They are very resistant to knife cuts and remain intact even after long use.

Choosing bamboo furniture is an eco-friendly choice, a choice green. Bamboo is a natural source that does not need a long time to regenerate. Using it to make furniture, flooring or other wooden objects leads to saving wood from species that take much longer to regenerate.

Add to these advantages the exotic and special look of bamboo furniture. Designers strive to create unique designs in the most attractive colors to suit all tastes without compromise. Furniture made of bamboo rods satisfies the taste of the more eccentric, extravagant, while bamboo panel furniture can be made in a classic style for the more conservative among us.

I hope that these arguments will make you look with confidence at bamboo furniture and think that, besides service If you've made one for the planet, make one for yourself, because you'll have very strong, durable and original furniture.
