Introduction In recent times, bamboo flooring has increased in popularity. Seen as modern and eco-friendly, bamboo floors combine aesthetic appeal with durability offering style and sustainability. This article will explore the different types of bamboo flooring available, the associated advantages and disadvantages of bamboo flooring and how to clean and maintain your bamboo floor properly. Let’s make a start!   Types of Bamboo Flooring - Solid Bamboo: Made from strips of bamboo glued together, solid bamboo can be laid with horizontal or vertical grains, which affects the floor’s appearance and durability. - Engineered Bamboo: This flooring consists of gluing a bamboo top veneer onto a plywood or fibreboard base. This makes the floor more stable and therefore less likely to warp with temperature and humidity fluctuations. - Strand-Woven Bamboo: This durable flooring is made from compressing shredded bamboo fibres together using an adhesive and high pressure. The result is a hard, dense and durable flooring.   Advantages of Bamboo Flooring - Sustainability: The plant bamboo grows at an incredible rate; some plants can grow up to one metre a day! This means that repopulating plants that are harvested is easy. Also, bamboo plants demand less water than traditional trees used in wooden flooring, such as oak and maple. This also saves our planet’s water resources. Win-win! - Durability: Bamboo is a durable natural material. #BambooFlooring...
