Bamboo is an environmentally friendly, renewable resource that has been used as
construction material for thousands of years. Ecologically, the harvesting of bamboo
does not affect the world's already dwindling timber resources. Technically
considered a grass, bamboo has the ability to grow to maturity in 4-6 years. The
intricate root system remains unharmed upon harvesting and allows for sustainable
future growth. While hardwoods take decades to achieve maturity, bamboo grows back
to its original size within a few months. Once cut, other hardwoods are lifeless.
Whereas after bamboo is cut, it is able to grow again and again.
BT Bamboo uses only mature Chinese Mao bamboo for our flooring. The bamboo poles are
selected and harvested from bamboo forests carefully monitored by the Chinese
Department of Forestry. This ensures the bamboo forests are able to self-regenerate
and maintain a natural ecosystem for future harvesting.
Our supplier is environmentally accredited ensuring a non-toxic and waste free
manufacturing process. All the glues used to laminate the boards and the coatings meet
international environmental standards - ISO 14000. BT Bamboo is laminated with Dynea
8000 and there is no urea-formaldehyde used in the glue. The coatings are water based
and are free of halogenated hydrocarbons, heavy metals, herbicides, insecticides,
pesticides, formaldehyde and any harmful emission complying with international standards.
BT Bamboo packaging is all reusable and environmentally sound using recycled materials.
