The Environmentally Sound Choice for Your New Floor
Bamboo hardwood flooring gives your home a gentle glow that’s both warm and sustainable. Beyond the traditional styles like natural, carbonized, vertical, and horizontal graining, bamboo now comes in various stain colors and hand-scraped finishes. Tougher than oak and maple, bamboo flooring offers more elasticity than many hardwoods, making it an excellent choice for both durability and style.
San Jose Hardwood flooring offers solid and engineered bamboo flooring from industry leaders such as Eco Timber, Teragren and PlyBoo. Bamboo checks all the boxes whether you’re looking for an eco-friendly option or a high-performance hardwood.
Bamboo Flooring
Made from bamboo stalks, bamboo flooring is quite affordable and eco-friendly. Bamboo is able to reach full maturity in 5-6 years with an average height of 80 feet. It is considered a renewable and sustainable resource because it is a harvested grass that continually regenerates. To make bamboo flooring, the hollow round shoots are sliced into strips and boiled to remove starch. The bamboo floor strips are then dried and laminated into solid boards and milled into standard plank bamboo flooring profiles.
Why Choose Bamboo Flooring?
Crafted from sustainable bamboo stalks, bamboo flooring is affordable, eco-friendly, and long-lasting. This fast-growing grass reaches maturity in just 5-6 years, soaring to 80 feet. As a renewable resource, bamboo regenerates quickly without depleting the environment, making it a top contender in sustainable hardwood flooring options.
To create the flooring, we slice bamboo shoots into strips, boil them to remove starch, and laminate the dried strips into solid boards. These boards are then milled into standard plank bamboo flooring profiles, offering various design possibilities.
Durability
Bamboo's resilience sets it apart. While traditional trees can crack under heavy winds or turbulent weather, bamboo bends and withstands these conditions, making it stronger than many traditional hardwoods, including oak and maple. Its flexibility and strength make bamboo ideal for areas with high foot traffic or extreme weather.
Sustainability
Bamboo is among the hardest, most durable, and environmentally sustainable flooring materials. Unlike hardwood trees, which take 15 to 100 years to mature, bamboo can be harvested every 5-7 years. Bamboo flooring supports a greener future, making it an excellent choice for eco-conscious homeowners.
Unlimited Colors and Styles
Bamboo flooring rivals traditional hardwood floors in available colors, grains and styles. Bamboo offers versatile design choices, whether you're going for a rustic, classic feel or a sleek, modern look. With options that include prefinished hardwood flooring and eco-friendly hardwood alternatives, bamboo is perfect for homeowners looking to combine style with sustainability.
Don’t settle for traditional wood flooring. Bamboo offers the best of all worlds—durability, style and sustainability. Bamboo flooring stands shoulder to shoulder with premium options like Monarch Plank and Hallmark Floors, offering an eco-friendly alternative that doesn’t compromise beauty or performance. When it comes to flooring that lasts, bamboo is the smart, sustainable choice for hardwood floor refinishing or new installations.
