Our Bamboo solid wood (although technically a grass!) is a natural, unvarnised ply (side pressed) made from chinese bamboo. It is a sustainable alternative to traditional plywood.
Bamboo is a nautral product and sheets can exhibit bowing (this may be visible/undesirable features on larger cut parts).
Finishing
For internal use edges can be left unfinished. For external use / internal use where exposed to moisture painting or varnishing is recommended.
Cutting Edges / Cleaning
Cut / Etched parts will have some burn marks from the laser process. These marks can usually be removed using methylated spirits. Alternatively via a light sanding with fine grit paper (approx 200 grit). For ease of cleaning consider using our masking tape option, this will significantly reduce the clean-up required.
