Who would have guessed bamboo makes awesome laminate flooring. Because of the manufacturing process, it is as strong as maple or red oak hardwood. Bamboo is harvested every 5 years because it is not actually considered wood. This makes it one of the most environmentally conscious laminate flooring choices on the market today. So if you care about the environment, this is a great alternative.

Bamboo comes in two colors, honey blonde or dark amber. This color change occurs during the smoking process. Most of the laminate flooring is imported from China but don’t let that fool you, it is not cheap. It will cost you about the same as top end traditional hardwood. It also comes with the tongue and groove style installation using either glue or nails to hold in place.

It is easy to keep your bamboo laminate looking great. Sweep or vacuum away loose dirt and simply damp mop. Make sure not to use excess water. Never use anything abrasive on your floors as this may dull or scratch the finish. Most products come with very good warrantees but remember to do your research.
