Bamboo Flooring

A bamboo floor is a type of flooring manufactured from the bamboo plant. The majority of today's bamboo flooring products originate in China and other portions of Asia. Moso bamboo is the species most commonly used for flooring.

Characteristics :

Bamboo has been used as an alternative for flooring because of its physical similarities to true hardwoods. Bamboo floor manufacturers and sellers promote its strength, durability, its eco-friendliness and its natural resistance to insects and moisture.

Bamboo Flooring Options :

1. Basic Form : Bamboo flooring comes in two basic forms-
.engineered planks and
.solid-bamboo planks.
There are three different kinds of solid-bamboo flooring: vertical-grain solid strip, flat-grain solid strip, and strand bamboo.
Engineered bamboo is typically installed using the floating-floor method: The wide planks are snapped together and laid over a thin foam-rubber underlayment. The flooring isn't attached to the subfloor in any manner, so installation goes fast.

2. Grain Types :
Horizontal Bamboo
Vertical bamboo
Strand-Woven bamboo

 3. Installation Types :
Nail Down/Glue Down
Floating: Glue-Seam
Floating: Glueless-Click

 4. color types :
Natural
Carbonized
Tiger
Stained
Direct Print

 5. Surface Texture Types :
Smooth
Hand Scraped
Hand Sculpted

Bamboo Flooring Maintenance :

Like most hardwood floors, bamboo floors should be treated carefully. When mopping, it is best to use a dust mop to remove the dust and grime. A stiff bristled broom can be used to remove more stubborn dirt from the crevices of the floor.
Wet mops should be avoided on the bamboo flooring. When it is necessary to mop the floor, wring the mop out thoroughly to prevent any extra water from being released onto the floor.
Cleaning detergents should be checked to make sure that they are safe for hard wood floors before they are added to the mop water. Many detergents contain a waxing agent which will dull the color of the flooring and leave behind a filmy glaze.

Cost Considerations :

Prices for solid-bamboo flooring usually range between about $2 and $4 a square foot. Engineered bamboo typically costs between $3 and $7 a square foot. Prices are often based on the thickness of the flooring; the thicker the plank, the more it costs.

Dyes VS. Stains : What is better concrete dye or stain?

Using Dyes On Concrete ? What Are They, And How Do They Differ From Chemical Stains ? What is better concrete dye or stain? Dyes are the latest buzz in the decorative concrete community.  Their ease of use, extensive palette, and vibrancy of color (which can be more intense than chemical stains) are creating a wave of popularity that is gaining momentum. Unlike stains, which react chemically with the calcium hydroxide in concrete, dyes are nonreactive and impart color by penetrating concrete or other porous cementitious surfaces.  Dyes are much smaller in particle size than chemical stains or acrylic stains, thus allowing for easier penetration and color saturation while leaving less residue on the surface.  A good analogy for comparing the color intensity and penetration of dyes to stains is that you can fit a lot more marbles than bowling balls into the same size container.  The small dye particles fill the pores of the concrete and are ...

Acoustic Panel

Acoustic panels are used to reduce noise and control sound in many different spaces. They come in a large variety of sizes, types and colors to meet your design, budgetary, and durability requirements. An acoustic board is a special kind of board made of sound absorbing materials. Its job is to provide sound insulation. Between two outer walls sound absorbing material is inserted and the wall is porous. Thus, when sound passes through an acoustic board, the intensity of sound is decreased. The loss of sound energy is balanced by producing heat energy.
