Bamboo is a very eco-friendly choice to make
because it is not hard to grow. Bamboo plywood on
the other hand, is made from 100 percent
renewable bamboo, using adhesives that are both
strong and emissions free. It can be cut and
sanded using conventional woodworking equipment
for various uses and applications. It is a great
material which can last really long and even
better than wood at many cases. It can also be
glued or mechanically fastened using the same
materials and fasteners commonly used with wood.

People who use wood are probably someway or in
the other making creating destruction to the
nature and especially at a time where
deforestation is a major issue to resolve. Since,
bamboo is a low resin, open grained material,
thus, it takes stains and finishes exceptionally
well. So, for them bamboo is a great alternative
to use plywood made of bamboo and it will be a
similar product to fill in the material.

Though there are thousand kinds of bamboos in the
market and which is grown but not all of the
types gets picked for making into building
products like bamboo plywood. The most common
type being the fast growing Moso Bamboo, it can
be fashioned in various ways to make products
such as natural and carbonized plywood with
vertical or horizontal grains depending on the
manufacturing process.

Combination Of Three Main Factors In Bamboo Ideal
For Manufacturing Plywood

1. Color

• Available in several colors, the three main
  colors it is found in are natural (blonde),
  carbonized (brown/honey) and tiger
  (neapolitan/zebra/marbled) which is a combination
  of natural and carbonized. You can even get them
  custom-stained by your supplier.

2. Grain

• Grain is the appearance or texture of the surface
  of the plywood and amongst them vertical,
  horizontal and strand woven are the most common
  ones. Vertical and horizontal are used most often
  in modern designs while the strand woven grain
  looks more like traditional wood.

3. Thickness

• Plywood made of bamboo comes in sheets that are
  as thin as 1/4? and goes all the way up to 1
  1/2? in thickness. The 1 1/2? thick panels are
  most often used for countertops and butcher block
  type furniture.

Benefits of using Plywood made of bamboo

• Bamboo plywood comes in both an amber and natural
  light tone
• It is laminated to produce two different surface
  grains, edge and flat.
• The edge grain appears as 1/4? strips and the
  flat grain appears as 3/4? strips on the surface
  of the plywood, then finish-sanded to a smooth
  180 grit.

The key to the color of bamboo is in the heating.
When it is first harvested and prepared the
material is of a light shade but when heat is
applied it darkens to various degrees. Colors
like tiger, also called zebra and neapolitan, are
the result of mixing natural and carbonized
bamboo together in a process that results in
strand woven (compressed) bamboo. Whether you are
planning a small remodel or a retail job, you can
find bamboo plywood for all sorts of applications.
