  • Bamboo, often mistaken for a tree or plant, is actually a species of grass. In China alone, there are over 200 species and 16 categories of bamboo cultivated for both economic and ecological purposes. It is nowadays processed at modern bamboo factories yielding an impressive 15-20 million tons of products annually.
    The journey of bamboo products begins with the careful cultivation of bamboo shoots. After 4-5 years of growth, the bamboo stems are ready for harvest, a significantly shorter timeline compared to tropical hardwoods. From the bamboo factory to modern production facilities specialized in bamboo product processing, a wide array of items are crafted from this versatile material. Flooring, furniture, kitchen utensils, sports equipment, bathroom necessities, reusable items, and even clothing are among the many products made from bamboo. Whether it's a bamboo spoon factory, bamboo sunglass factory, or bamboo toothbrush factory, the potential for innovation and sustainability in bamboo product manufacturing is vast. With its rapid growth and diverse applications, bamboo continues to emerge as a cornerstone of eco-friendly production and consumption.
    This is The Smart Farm! A heavenly space featuring harvesting innovation and production line insights.

    They also make plywood and dimensional lumber from bamboo by glueing together large group of slats, laid out correctly and then pressing them into shape under high pressure and oven baking them so that the glue is both permanent and waterproof. Just like other plywood and laminated lumber made from other woods. Bamboo is now also used because of how fast it grows, more timber is grown in a much shorter time than full sized trees.
    I was surprised that none of this was featured, just decorative lumber and tiny items which have been made for thousands of years. Excepting the replacement for plastic tableware and straws.

    Bamboo hasn’t got the stability for high houses. Until a German architect found out how to give bamboo a stability of more than 100 years. The bamboo has to get in the middle a hole by a very long thin iron piece. Now each piece of such bamboo sticks are placed into a specific acid juice which creates the new stability. Visit Bali and you will be amazed seeing the most beautiful bamboo houses.

    Bamboo is a grass (like sugarcane, and banana plant) which spreads (to a forest) via underground runners called ratoons. It is used in house construction as the supporting structure over which tiles can be placed to form a roof. My childhood home was one such house.

    If you ever plan on growing bamboo make sure it's the variety that doesn't spread. I purchased a property from a couple who were growing bamboo that was huge for wood. They used a variety that spread via roots underground. They cut it all back for the sale so I found out later when it started shooting up all over the property. Even digging it up failed to remove it all. I used what I could but later sold my property again as it was too much work keeping it out of drains and the house foundations. Its also a weed and can result in a fine in most areas. I informed the new owners about it when they first viewed my property and they were ok with it. I doubt the are now years later...

    one of the more fascinating uses of bamboo is in high rise construction in he orient. they use a larger diameter bamboo for exterior scaffolding the first 10-20 floors and then convert to a smaller size than can go up many more floors. Bamboo is strong and flexible. It is the flexibility that makes it capable of handling heavy loads without breaking.

      Every material, whether natural or man-made has its pros and cons. Every material can have a long life if treated properly. I have seen steel products corrode away to nothing faster than a wood one can decay. I’ve seen natural material products live longer than made-made materialed ones. All depends on purpose, environment and care. Bamboo is fascinating and is so versatile, cheap and easily replaced.
