If you will notice in most Manhattan and New York establishments, strand woven bamboo flooring can readily give your home or office a natural finish. From the name itself, strand woven bamboo flooring is made using interwoven fibers from the bamboo. Once the weaving process is completed, the material will be placed under pressure and heat while applying adhesive materials. This is to ensure structural integrity and durability of the finished product (3,000 pounds-force Janka Hardness).

Formaldehyde

When choosing strand woven bamboo flooring, it’s very important to make sure the adhesive used in the manufacturing process doesn’t contain more formaldehyde than allowed by U.S. OSHA, European E0, CARB Phase 1 and CARB Phase 2. Here at Wood Floor Planet, we have reputable strand woven bamboo flooring brands available such EcoFusion and Hawa that comply with formaldehyde emission standards.
