Quality Teragren Bamboo Floors For Your Home

Teragren Bamboo flooring combines the unique look of bamboo with an environmentally friendly manufacturing processes. Bamboo is a naturally growing plant and is economically sound to harvest because it regrows so quickly. With traditional wood flooring, manufactures are usually looking at destroying forests to make wooden homes, flooring, and furnishings. When you chop down a tree, it can take a over two decades to re-grow, which is why many consumers turn to bamboo flooring as an alternative to traditional wood floors.

Not only is it an extremely and durable hard wood, but it is also easy to grow and harvest without harming ecosystems. However, there are some manufactures that take the bamboo and process it so that it is harmful to the environment because of the waste that it creates in the refining process.

Not so with Teragren Bamboo flooring. They are careful about which growers they purchase their bamboo from and then bake the colors and finishes into the wood during a high pressure process that ensures there is no extra waste generated by their manufacturing process. The result is beautiful wood bamboo flooring in many hues, colors and finishes.

One thing about Teragren is that they use water based pigments and sealers that are safe for the environment. Many companies that manufacture bamboo flooring use bamboo growers that don’t care about how they harvest their bamboo crop and then use harmful chemicals to treat it during the curing process. This includes using formaldehyde, an extremely poisonous chemical that is actually used to embalm people who are deceased.

Not only is this dangerous, but people who buy floors and cabinets treated with formaldehyde can actually get sick from breathing in the fumes from this chemical. This effect can last for years and if you walk around barefoot or store food in your kitchen cabinets, and this chemical is so strong that over time it can seep into your skin and eventually make you ill. It’s great that there are companies around like Teragren that make bamboo flooring that is both natural and beautiful.
