Unlike traditional bamboo flooring, strand bamboo combines the durability and dimensional stability of tropical hardwoods with the green credentials of traditional bamboo flooring products.

Until 2005 traditional bamboo flooring was the only style of bamboo flooring available since the industry started in 1995-but that changed when strand bamboo hit the market. Strand bamboo-a type of bamboo-revolutionized the world of flooring, according to president of Trinity Bamboo, Tom Goodham. Similar to plastic composite, it is low maintenance, durable, and non-rotting in nature. Those bamboo strands-no longer containing nutrients-are then recombined (fused) into a dense, durable panel.įused bamboo combines wood’s aesthetic appeal with plastic composite’s durability to make for a perfect outdoor material.ĭassoXTR bamboo decking has the look and feel of natural wood, minus the downsides-a short life span, fungus growth, prone to insect and termite attack, rotting, and instability. In 2006 the dasso Group introduced dassoXTR-an extremely durable bamboo product designed specifically for outdoor applications.ĭassoXTR’s bamboo decking is made of fused bamboo-which requires bamboo to be harvested at peak growth, shredded into strands, and then extracted of nutrients.

Headquartered in Hangzhou, China, the dasso Group has developed innovative bamboo products, including bamboo flooring, decking, siding, and furnishings, for more than two decades. DassoXTR Bamboo Decking is made of fused bamboo, which combines wood’s aesthetic appeal with plastic composite’s durability.
