Bamboo Furniture

Bamboo: Strong, durable and beautiful, naturally.

The planet is in a climate crisis, so reducing the environmental impact of our products is crucial.

Bamboo products are a more sustainable choice than metal models because they have a smaller carbon footprint.

Bamboo is a renewable resource that grows quickly and sequesters carbon, unlike metal which produces carbon.

What does ‘sequesters carbon’ mean?

Carbon sequestration is the capturing, removal and storage of carbon dioxide (CO2) from the earth’s atmosphere. It’s recognized as a key method for removing carbon from the earth’s atmosphere.

How does bamboo compare to wood or metal?

• Bamboo ranks highest for resistance to denting and wear—above Hard Maple, White Oak and Teak.

• Bamboo is a renewable resource that grows quickly and sequesters carbon, unlike metal which produces carbon.

• Bamboo has a higher tensile strength than metal. This means that if you pull on a piece of bamboo and a piece of metal, it will take more force to break the bamboo.

• Bamboo is easy to care for; just wipe down with soap and water.

Bamboo Facts

• Bamboo is a renewable resource because it is actually a member of the grass family, even though it is typically mistaken as a tree. When you harvest a shoot of bamboo, the root system does not die, like a tree would during some types of logging practices.

• Bamboo grows back from its stump and is extremely fast growing, up to 3 ft or 1 meter a day.

• Bamboo can be harvested every 4-5 years, compared to over 50 years for teak, for example.

Our finish is a nitrocellulose lacquer. Lacquers are a popular finish type for furniture, and the preferred choice of professional furniture makers. Lacquers provide a clear, durable, and water-resistant finish that protects the base material while also enhancing its appearance.
