Myanma Bamboo Parquet

In Myanmar, floor, wall and furniture used to be decorated with hardwoods such as teak and iron wood. Now, bamboo is being used instead of hardwoods for modification. Using bamboo is in harmony with Myanmar geography. Bamboo is a self-replenishing plant. So, if it is cut according to sustainable yield, there need be no worry for deforestation.

Hardwood like teak is a valuable perennial tree but substitute for bamboo must be used in the long-term interest. Bamboo parquets are being produced at New Golden Bamboo Industry Ltd in Hlaingtharya Industrial Zone, Yangon.

Over three years Kyathaung bamboo has been used for bamboo parquet. Kythaung bamboo has rich veins and is hard. Only this bamboo of 3 inches diameter can be used because of equal texture. It is split into equal sizes and is boiled under chemical treatment to remove the sweetness and fat as well as to disinfect and dry it. The de-moisturized parquet states are water and heat resistant.
After they are dried, MUF (Melamine Urea Formaldehyde) Glue and pressure is applied to obtain the strength when being struck to the floor.
Bamboo parquet ready for use is obtained after four or five coating with Ultraviolet Acrylic Urethane Coating on its surface for resistance from heat and water and to prevent streaks showing up and to be bright.
Regarding production of bamboo parquet, it is produced in natural and coffee colour. Besides bamboo parquet, we have produced other bamboo-based materials.

So, Myanmar Bamboo parquet fetch good price not only here but also in foreign market.
