Laminated Bamboo Production: Crafting Sustainable Strength and Elegance

Harvesting Bamboo at Peak Maturity
Harvesting Bamboo at Peak Maturity
At HTR Bamboo, excellence begins with selecting bamboo at its optimal growth stage. Sourced from the nutrient-rich highlands of Eastern China, our bamboo culms are harvested at precisely 5 years of age—the sweet spot where the plant achieves full lignification. Younger stems lack the density needed for structural applications, while older ones risk discoloration and fiber brittleness.
Our forestry partners use AI-powered scanners to identify prime culms, ensuring every HTR Bamboo product starts with raw material that meets our rigorous hardness and aesthetic standards.
Transforming Hollow Stems Into Engineered Strips
Transforming Hollow Stems Into Engineered Strips
The journey from raw bamboo to premium laminated products demands precision. Our patented processing method converts hollow culms into uniform strips while minimizing waste:
Skin Removal: The outer layer is stripped and repurposed as biomass fuel for our factories, reducing reliance on fossil fuels.
Grading: Strips are sorted into three classes—only Grade A (zero skin residue) is used for HTR Bamboo’s architectural-grade panels.
Did You Know? Removing 100% of the skin increases production costs by 22% but delivers unmatched surface consistency.

HTR Bamboo offers two curated color profiles for designers:
- Ecru: Achieved through low-pressure steam treatment, this warm neutral complements minimalist interiors.
- Caramel: Extended high-heat processing deepens the tone for bold, contemporary spaces.
Both options are ideal for indoor use. For outdoor projects like HTR Bamboo decking, Caramel strips undergo additional impregnation to resist UV damage and moisture ingress.
Moisture Control: The Stability Secret
Moisture Control: The Stability Secret
Application | Target Moisture Content |
---|---|
EU Indoor Flooring | 8–9% |
US Southwest | 6–7% |
Tropical Coastal | 10–11% |
This precision prevents warping—a key reason why HTR Bamboo flooring maintains <0.5mm seasonal expansion in 98% of installations.


Color Sorting for Design Consistency
Color Sorting for Design Consistency
Natural color variations between bamboo strips are inevitable. While competitors batch-process mixed tones, HTR Bamboo offers:
- Single-Batch Sorting: 16-step color grading for uniform installations.
- Custom Color Matching: Pantone-referenced batches for large-scale projects.

Advanced Bonding: Glues That Balance Strength & Sustainability
Advanced Bonding: Glues That Balance Strength & Sustainability
HTR Bamboo’s laminated products contain just 1.2% adhesive by volume. While we’re pioneering bio-based glues in our R&D labs, current production uses:
- EPI Resins: Ultra-low formaldehyde (<0.01 ppm) for indoor safety.
- PRF Adhesives: Phenolic resins for outdoor structural bonds.
Our E0-certified adhesives exceed CARB Phase II standards by 300%.
