With Bamboo N-finity MOSO® has developed a fast growing, sustainable structural bamboo timber. Bamboo N-finity is available up to 18’ lengths. Making it ideal for specialty use applications requiring long straight boards. Bamboo N-finity is ideal for applications that require tight tolerance and straight lumber like window and door frames or curtain walls.
MOSO® Bamboo N-finity is the first bamboo material that is certified with an Approval for structural applications by the German Institute for Construction technique. With the technical characteristics mentioned in the Approval, the Bamboo N-finity Beams can be installed as structural or non-structural elements in buildings that are described in the document.
Bamboo N-finity is applied in the construction of the new complex of Klöckner Pentaplast BV in Montabaur, Germany. In this building, the beams are used as supporting elements in the building shell, replacing aluminium material.
MOSO® Bamboo N-finity timbers are developed for use in the construction sector. The bamboo strips are joined together at strip level by a special patented patented hook-joint technology. Bamboo N-finity has been tested and certified for its mechanical properties (bending, tensile, compression and shearing properties) and is an excellent construction beam.
The standard range consists of 4 different cross-sections with a length of up to 18’. The beams are available for special order in sizes up to 4.5” x 8” x 40’. This product is suitable for indoor use in post and crossbar constructions.
