Engineered bamboo flooring has a layer of strand woven bamboo on top of base layers of plywood. This gives the bamboo flooring stability. Any type of bamboo flooring is dimensionally stable but engineered bamboo means that the planks of flooring can be made wider than solid bamboo.
How is engineered bamboo flooring made?
It has a plywood base that runs perpendicular to the top layer of bamboo. This gives the planks of flooring additional stability. The surface of the flooring is made from strand woven bamboo. To create this strand woven layer, the bamboo has been shredded into strands and woven together to create a dense, robust material. Strand woven bamboo is harder than any wood flooring.
How do I fit engineered bamboo flooring?
Our engineered bamboo has a click fitting system, which makes it easy to install. You can either float it over an underlay or glue it down to the subfloor. The click fitting system allows you to simply click and lock the planks together to create a tight and secure fit.
Where can I use it?
You can use it in almost any room in your home. It is durable and versatile enough to be used in both domestic and residential areas. All types of strand woven bamboo can easily withstand footfall from high traffic like hallways, living spaces and dining rooms. It has the added benefit of being able to deal with changes in temperature and humidity so is perfect for conservatories and rooms with large amounts of glazing.
