Is Bamboo flooring hard or soft?
Bamboo is simply grass; what defines its hardness & durability is when it was harvested. Traditionally, bamboo matures after 5 years and should be harvested then. If it is harvested before maturity, it will definitely make a soft floor. You should always ask for a document from any manufacturer that indicates the harvesting process and time frame. Most reputable mills include this information in their catalogues, websites or on their warranty documents. We offer bamboo from two of the most reputable names in the world: Teragren offers Moso 5.5 bamboo which states the harvest time. Natural Bamboo also offers bamboo that ranges in maturity from 5 to 6 years.
