Bamboo is the fastest growing plant on the earth and therefore a fast renewable resource. This user-friendly grass is employed for a multitude of things. The reason: no other natural resource possesses more elasticity, hardness and strength.

Bamboo produces four times more wood than oak. Whenever bamboo is in use, it makes a valuable contribution to the environment, since the much slower growing hardwood forest is left untouched.

Bamboo consumes only little energy while producing material with enormous mechanical properties, a good reason to replace energy wasting steel constructions.

Bamboo produces substantially more oxygen and captures relatively more atmospheric CO2 than trees. It therefore plays a vital role in a healthy ecosystem. It also prevents soil erosion due to the extensive clumping of its root system.
