FSC Unfinished Bamboo

FSC Unfinished Bamboo

For homeowners looking for the ultimate in versatility, FSC Unfinished Bamboo is the place to go. With unfinished flooring products one can choose whichever stain they prefer, be it a dark walnut or a less conventional green or red. Some may choose to simply seal the bamboo as-is for a completely natural flooring look. Whatever look homeowners wish to achieve, the FSC Unfinished Bamboo collection from Nikzad can give it while being environmentally friendly at the same time.

FSC Unfinished Bamboo Design Options

FSC Unfinished Bamboo flooring is available in natural vertical grain, natural horizontal grain, carbonized vertical grain, and carbonized horizontal grain. Regardless of graining pattern, each option features an elegant square edge and 6 5/8 inch widths. FSC Unfinished Bamboo is extremely versatile on its own, but if one wishes to mix it up even more, this collection can be combined with choices of other collections as well such as FSC Designer, FSC Prestige, or FSC Pacifique Strand. Even EcoTimber’s EcoBamboo Collection could be incorporated into a flooring design with the FSC Unfinished Bamboo collection.

As far as patterns go, many things are possible with FSC Unfinished Bamboo flooring. One could create a border around a room using a darker finish while leaving the majority of the floor open and light. A tiling look can be created by staining FSC Unfinished Bamboo various colors and using small cuts to inlay throughout the floor. A homeowner may wish to create a variance of tones by using 3 or 4 similar shaded stains every few planks or simply go for a solid and sophisticated look by using one color exclusively.

Environmental benefits of FSC Unfinished Bamboo flooring:

• All FSC certified collections from Nikzad are rated based on sustainable and responsible harvesting practices.
• Bamboo matures at a fraction of the rate of traditional hardwoods, requiring only a maximum of 6 years rather than 60.
• Bamboo is technically a grass and as such does not require replanting in order to continue growing.

FSC Unfinished Bamboo Durability

Bamboo is harder than oak, one of the hardest hardwoods available. With proper installation and care, and FSC Unfinished Bamboo floor will last for many years. Nikzad offers a 25 year residential and 5 year commercial warranty, but life expectancy exceeds this generous warranty period. To prolong the life of this beautiful flooring product even further, homeowners might consider placing rugs under furniture and in areas that receive the most traffic.

Caring for an FSC Unfinished Bamboo Floor

Owners should sweep or vacuum bamboo floors daily or at least every other day to prevent small particles of dirt from scratching the surface. A soft bristled broom or sweeping product that uses static electricity to trap dust particles will work better than a traditional broom. Vacuums should have a hard floor attachment and never be used with the beater brush engaged. Mopping should be done with a damp, never wet, mop using only plain water or a very mild detergent that is rinse free.
