BAMBOO FLOORING
Bamboo flooring is truly a unique product. Everything about this flooring replicates real hardwood – from touch, to smell, to the way it’s cut and even has a higher density rating than most hardwoods, including maple and oak. However, these beautiful floors are made of grass.
Best known for its’ environmental attributes, bamboo flooring is one of the fastest-growing plants in the world. Due to its’ rapid growth rate, bamboo can be harvested every four to seven years, and the same plant regenerates after cutting, creating a never-ending harvesting cycle! Meanwhile, an average tree can take anywhere from 15 to 100 years to become fully mature. That is quite a difference economically and environmentally!
An extremely versatile product, bamboo flooring can be installed in most areas of the home and in commercial spaces. The installation process of bamboo flooring is similar to other hardwoods and we sell both engineered and solid bamboo planks. Furthermore, this flooring is relatively impact-resistant because of the forgiving nature of bamboo’s cellular structure.
Contrary to popular belief, bamboo flooring is available in just as many colours, grains and styles as traditional hardwood floors—with a unique twist. But don’t just take our word for it, browse Teragreen’s selection online or come in and have a look for yourself!
