Unlike other types of wood, bamboo has an extremely rapid growth rate of between three and four years. In addition, they have an average lifespan of up to 100 years.
Another advantage is that when it is cut down, a new shoot sprouts on the spot through underground stems. More resistant, its long fibres allow it to be moulded into various shapes with less waste.
Companies that commit to using bamboo usually have a certificate, guaranteeing that they exploit sustainable reserves, ensuring that native forest areas are safe.
