The bamboo advantages

MOSO Bamboo advantages for garden terraces:

The beautiful hardwood appearance with a natural greying, unless an oil is periodically applied;
A strong, wear-resistant, stable and hard material that lasts for years: Durability class 1 (EN 350 tested following CEN/TS 15083-2) and Use class 4 (EN 335);
A very stable board: it hardly shrinks or swells, can be installed endlessly with an end-match system and can be installed with hidden fasteners and even in special patterns;
Available in various widths and profiles.

Extremely stable and durable

Moso bamboo is one of the fastest growing plants on earth. The bamboo stems grow from an underground root system and after 4-5 years a stem can be harvested, while the others continue to grow. Each year new shoots sprout from the root system. This means the bamboo can be used without harming the forest. After harvesting, the Moso bamboo stems are split and the outer and inner skins are removed. By modifying the bamboo strands with a special Thermo-Density (Bamboo X-treme) or Outdoor-Density (Bamboo N-durance) process, the dimensional stability of bamboo is improved by about 50%. The heat-treatment (X-treme) or steam-pressure treatment (N-durance) provides the highest durability class possible. The material is stronger and harder than almost any other hardwood.

More about how bamboo is made

A low-maintenance and durable terrace

Unfortunately, maintenance-free decks do not exist in combination with a long service life. Under the influence of wind, rain, sun and snow, each terrace becomes dirty and the material will weather. Bamboo X-treme is a low maintenance product. The boards have a brown to dark brown colour when installed, which becomes lighter a few weeks after installation. The discolouration does not affect the quality and stability of the boards, the surface becomes only slightly rougher. Without maintenance, the material will become completely grey as a result of UV radiation (comparable to most other types of wood).

Maintaining your bamboo garden terrace

In addition to periodic cleaning, we recommend annual maintenance of the pre-oiled decking with Woca maintenance products. Unfinished decking must be treated with a suitable waterbased oil or saturator immediately after installation. Annual maintenance and cleaning should be performed using a cleaner and silicium carbid brush or broom.
