Environmental and structural benefits of using Engineered bamboo products (EBPs)
Bamboo can be engineered to form products with improved and/or standardised mechanical, physical and aesthetic properties. As in the case for other lignocellulosic materials such as wood, bamboo poles (culms) with variable diameters, lengths and shapes can be transformed into straight edged engineered products with predictable properties for construction applications. Engineered bamboo products (EBPs) and engineered wood products (EWPs) possess an intrinsic carbon storage cap
