I am sure lots of people choose bamboo flooring for decoration because of its remarkable comfort degree. When paving bamboo flooring at room, people will feel that it is cool in hot summer and so warm in cold winter, do you know the reason?

From the aspect of artistic outlook, bamboo flooring is more monotonous because the bamboo raw material itself doesn’t have abundant color and lustre, it is not suitable for diversified decoration style at the beginning, however, this problem has ceased to exist because of dyeing technology used in bamboo flooring manufacture. As for solid wood flooring, which is mainly made from natural wood, there is no such problem on color and lustre.

Finally, about environmental protection factor
Believe it or not, in the long term, bamboo flooring would be the development tendency in home or office decoration industry because of its environmentally friendly advantage.

As for solid wood flooring, its raw material is the trees which have grown at least thirty years, so it will be less and less, more and more precious in the future.
