Bamboo is hardwearing when compared to some wooden floors.  We have different types of bamboo flooring and some are more hardwearing than others.  All types are suitable for homes and residential use, but we also have some that you may prefer if you have a busy area or a commercial property. All wooden and bamboo floors are tested to assess their hardness.  It is a scientific measurement called the Janka Hardness Test.  Our solid bamboo floors are comparable to Oak flooring; however, our strand woven floors are over twice as hard.
