Because of promising market prospect, lots of floor manufacturers began to manufacture bamboo flooring, as a result, there are lots of bamboo flooring brands and products in floor market, as consumers, they want to know how to choose top quality bamboo flooring because in fact some retailers sell seconds at best quality prices. Here are some tips that you can follow when selecting bamboo flooring.

Firstly, it is necessary to know bamboo flooring manufacturer and related after-sales service

As for most consumers, it is difficult to judge bamboo flooring’s quality, high quality or poor quality, from its appearance. At the same time, bamboo flooring’s quality will only be reflected gradually during using procedure, how to solve such problem? The simple method is to judge its manufacturer’s strength. Generally speaking, large scale floor manufacturers have solid technical force, comprehensive testing method and high mechanized production, therefore its high quality would be guaranteed.

Secondly, compare their textures, structures and other details.

For example, compared with other bamboo fibers, phyllostachys pubescens has great hardness, at the same time, it has better performance of abrasion resistance, bending resistance and compression resistance due to high density, great toughness and small flexibility.

As for bamboo structure, it is recommended to buy the bamboo floor with three-layer structure. Because of the same thickness and breadth between the surface and ground surface, it is not easy to be out of shape.

As for other details you need to check are sandwich layer and bamboo cane. Take the sandwich layer for example, there should not be impurities in it, otherwise not only the bonding strength is not very good, but also bamboo floor’s strength will be very poor. This is the same case for bamboo cane, both bamboo green and tabasheer can not be found on it, otherwise the glue condition will be affected.

Thirdly, pay attention on the content of formaldehyde and its moisture content

After being covered with painting, as usual, the release content of formaldehyde in bamboo floor should meet the E1 standard. Simply speak, when using your nose to smell bamboo, you will not feel pungent smell. On the contrary, if your eyes or throat is stimulated, it is the signal of high release amount of formaldehyde.

Because of different humidities in different living environments, the standard of moisture content is also different when selecting bamboo floor, so it is important to know the actual situation in local environment. If moisture content doesn’t meet the standard, after a short time using, you will find that bamboo floor becomes black and its original gloss was lost, what’s worse, floor will be out of shape seriously.
