SOLID BAMBOO FLOORING
BamStar Premier6 solid tongue-and-groove Bamboo strip flooring is an extremely attractive look and one of the most popular choices of consumers. Tongue and Groove construction makes for basic installation, much like that of other hardwood floors. BamStar Flooring can be installed using the traditional nailing or gluing methods. Due to the nature of the bamboo there is less shrinkage and swelling allowing easier installation. Since BamStar Flooring is a product of nature, there will be slight variations in color.

Bamboo is an Environmental Choice
Did you know that Bamboo is the fastest growing tree! Bamboo is actually considered a grass, rather than a wood, which means that the same tree can be re-harvested for many years. Bamboo has a very intricate rooting system allowing the same plant to regenerate itself and to be re-harvested every 3-5 years. Bamboo also grows in large amounts and may be selectively harvested annually. This makes bamboo one of the most renewable and abundant natural resources on the planet and sustainable.
