By the way, the US is producing 3 times more wood fiber than being harvested, check the facts with the US Forest Service.

I see them capturing all of the process water from there steaming process and I am sure they are using CARB compliant glue in the pressing process too. I guess they have to dip their bamboo to kill all of the living organisms that live in the bamboo too. Look at all the safety controls they have in place. And we wonder why are jobs are being exported...........

does anybody know how 2 clean bamboo floors

Bamboo is a fast growing GRASS! Save the trees and use bamboo. It's less expensive but also durable.

Bamboo creates a beautiful and hardwearing floor, and in terms of durability it outperforms most hardwood floors, including oak. It is more environmentally friendly than wood

Nice. I loved how all those strips were turned into a sheet of bamboo ply. I just wish those workers were wearing dust masks. I want to build something in bamboo now.

NICE JIG at 1:26...Bamboo to be bent like that had to have been treated somehow, possibly held in boiling or hot water for many hours.

Bamboo flooring is being promoted as being more environmentally friendly than hardwood. From this it looks quite energy, chemical and process intensive as opposed to wood which is mainly just sliced. Bamboo regenerates though and does so in 5 years which hardwood cannot. For the protection of hardwood forests and their dependant wildlife, bamboo might be a way forward - if there is one.

what is the minimum investment needed to set up a small factory ?

[tankbusters]

Deauzie, please do not try to invest in the manufacturing of bamboo. It is a great product but the market is so flooded with high end and cheaply produced bamboo. It is not worth it at this point. If you can design a new style like the "woven strand" bamboo floor that was designed by a person from Australia, then you will have a product that will be lucrative.
