Bamboo is one of the fastest
growing woody plants on the
green face of the earth. This
perennial, evergreen true grass
family is significantly used as
a versatile everyday building
product. Moreover, evolving
since the Cretaceous period,
bamboo is used extensively in
culinary, medicinal,
construction, textiles, musical
instruments, etc.
Talking about bamboo in
textiles, apart from apparels,
this fibrous plant is also used
in carpets and rugs. Natural
floor coverings such as Bamboo
Carpets originated in Asiatic
locations and have been used
since centuries.
Bamboo carpets have been the
most chosen floor coverings
these days. They are available
in generally two natural shades
that are trendier than ever.
However, they are also seen as
matching all sorts of interiors.
The two most opted colors are
rich honey-toned brown or light
tan with variations in shades.

bamboo carpets are always kind
to the environment as well as
one’s eyes. These hypoallergenic
floor coverings lock up dirt
particles and grimace. Being
resilient to water and mold
growth, it is best for bathrooms
and kitchens. In order to obtain
a healthy home, such carpets are
toxin free unlike synthetic
carpets. A potential hazard,
‘Off-Gas’ is quite
characteristic of synthetic
carpets while unrolling. They

organic compounds in the air

exorbitant as its other
luxurious counterparts like silk

case of undesirable stains,
professional cleaning is
required on a seasonal basis.
