Traditional North American wood fencing products take 10 – 50 years to reach full mass. Studies have shown that the effects of global warming could be reversed in just 6 years if bamboo was planted on the planet in mass.
Strong
The incredible strength of bamboo out-performs the very best timbers in hardness and dimensional stability. Structural tests of bamboo have scored a higher tensile rating than some steel alloys, higher compressive ratings concrete and higher strength to weight ratios than graphite. Its surface is smooth and consistent, as is the fibre of bamboo – no knots or variations in densities. Aside from a small variation at the node point, the strength is consistent the entire cut length.
