Description

This bamboo board is made from compressing strips of bamboo with resin to form a hard sheet. The caramel bamboo colour can be enhanced further by lightly oiling or varnishing the surface. Use Tung oil to protect the surface on food preparation or serveware.

Please note: This 5mm board is classified as a veneer. This is a single ply and is prone to splitting. We recommend attaching to a solid sub-structure using screws or impact adhesive.

Additional information

PLEASE NOTE: The diameter stated is measured at the widest end of the cane. Due to the way in which bamboo is grown and cut, it is normal for the canes to taper; whilst most canes will only taper down by a few millimetres, they can taper up to 60% in extreme cases. Each pole is expected to be within +/-20% of the range diameter it is sold in. Bamboo is a natural product and is subject to cracking, splitting & discolouration, none of which will affect its structural properties
