Why is there a special bamboo care oil?

Our bamboo decking boards are extremely durable and outlast many types of wood. Thanks to their high density and dimensional stability, they are exceptionally resistant to weathering and warping. With professional installation and proper care, they can easily exceed their 25-year warranty.

Our bamboo decking boards have the highest possible durability rating of Class 1, according to EN 311/350-2. This durability class signifies a lifespan of over 25 years.

‍

Due to the properties, such as the particularly high density, of our bamboo profiles, a special bamboo care oil has been developed that is tailored to them. The use of wood care oils or cooking oils does not work on bamboo, as they do not bond with the surface structure and do not dry and protect.

AMBOOO care oil is a water-based thin-layer glaze that has been tailored to bamboo over many years of development. Development and production take place in Germany and meet the highest quality standards. The oil not only refreshes the colour, but also protects the material from the elements.

AMBOOO bamboo: The high-tech wonder for your outdoor area

Why AMBOOO when there is so much bamboo on the market? It's simple: Because we not only sell bamboo, but have been selling it for over 30 years of perfecting. While others are still experimenting, we use our specialized HCS procedure Standards in terms of durability and aesthetics.

This makes AMBOOO the market leader for outdoor bamboo:

• Real highland bamboo: Our raw material grows at altitudes of 500 to 1,000 meters. As a result of slower growth in these layers, bamboo develops an extremely high density and natural strength.
• The HCS (High Compression Strand) process: In a precisely balanced process of temperature and time, we remove the sugar from the material. The result? A beautiful caramel shade, maximum resistance to fungi an the highest durability class 1.
• Precision down to the last detail: From optimal pressure of the profiles to finishing with our specially developed in Germany bamboo care oil — we control every ingredient and every step.
• Largest selection of colors on the market: Functionality meets design. We offer you the widest range of colors in the industry and can even implement individual customer solutions upon request.

Natural. Technically superior. Unique.

AMBOOO bamboo products are more than just a building material — they are a highly technical building material that is built to last (or at least for very, very many summers). With 30 years of experience, we know exactly what's in our products so you can sit back and relax.

Bamboo is a super plant because it...

• grows up to 1 meter per day, offering vast resources
• is undemanding in terms of growth and generally requires little water
• absorbs a lot of CO2 while growing rapidly and produces oxygen in the process
• does not die when harvested but sprouts anew
• provides erosion control through its dense root system
• offers socioeconomic benefits, as a source of income in economically disadvantaged regions
• and, due to the longevity of the products, conserves resources
• serves as an alternative to hardwoods and tropical woods

In general, AMBOOO bamboo decking boards offer slip resistance in accordance with DIN 51097 and DIN 51130 - R12. The smooth side of the decking board is even more slip-resistant than the profiled side. With profiled sides, weather or environmental influences, such as rain and frost or pollen, dirt, etc. play a greater role and can become more slippery.

The advantages of the smooth side are easier cleaning and care. Visually, natural, weather-related changes in the material can be more noticeable, but can also be processed faster and better.
