Bamboo

Bamboo is an incredible grass and one of the most versatile plants in the world. From food, paper, tools, furniture, to flooring...Both environmentally friendly and the fastest-growing renewable resource known - long before these concepts were invented. It can be harvested between 4 to 6 years, compared to 30 to 60 years for hardwood trees.
Not only can it regenerate without planting, it can produce up to 20 percent more oxygen than trees. In addition, it works quickly to restore nutrient-depleted soil, and absorbs up to 30 percent more atmospheric carbon than comparably sized hardwood forests. Of the over 1,200 species of bamboo, only a few are considered the elite timber species that is used in flooring. Bamboo™ bamboo flooring is treated and shaped by modern technology to create an attractive yet durable state-of-the-art flooring. Its combination of beauty, toughness, and earth-friendly production makes Bamboo™ flooring as practical and environmentally conscious choice for the new millennium.
