There seems to be a bit of a buzz about bamboo flooring in
interior design circles at the moment. This is not really surprising, given the
benefits of this wonderful material. If you are getting new floors in your home
or business, bamboo is something you should seriously consider and here’s why:
Bamboo flooring is less expensive than hardwood but has many
of the same benefits. It is seriously one of the best value flooring materials
out there today, in terms of what you pay for the quality you receive and it’s
attractive aesthetic.
Environmentally friendly
Perhaps one of the biggest benefits of bamboo flooring is
how environmentally friendly it is. The material comes from the bamboo plant
that grows a few meters every day. This means that it can be harvested quickly
and replenished in record time, unlike actual hardwood where the tree takes
many years to re-grow to full size. Those who are keen to keep the environment
in mind when redecorating can do no wrong with bamboo flooring.
Aesthetic
The beauty of bamboo flooring is that it looks extremely
like hardwood. In fact, it would be very difficult to tell the difference. It
can be purchased in a range of finishes too – for example, different shades and
textures -- giving you plenty of options when looking to choose a style to suit
the room it will be going in.
Longevity
Bamboo flooring is also surprisingly sturdy. It will last a
long time and will hold its own against hardwood, in terms of wear and
tear. Walking on bamboo flooring is
actually a very similar feeling to walking on hardwood flooring and they have
remarkably similar properties.
