BuildDirect, the world’s leading online wholesaler of building materials is meetin
g customer demand with its new line of bamboo flooring. Traditional bamboo flooring has only been available in limited varieties. But BuildDirect is listening to its customers and offering a whole new range of options that are sure to impress.
“Bamboo flooring has quickly become a popular product because of its environmental benefits,” said Rob Banks, executive vice-president and co-founder, BuildDirect. “What we’re finding is that customers are asking for more options in bamboo, like more colors, more cuts and a greater versatility for designers.”
With this in mind, BuildDirect is providing greater selection for their Yanchi bamboo flooring. Strand woven Tiger bamboo floors offer users a harder surface, with a grain that is similar to hardwood flooring. This is created by weaving long strips of bamboo together and then binding them under high pressure.
Yanchi Strand Woven Tiger Bamboo Floors also have a unique color pattern that is different from the two traditional options of natural, noted for its blond color, or carbonized bamboo, known for its chocolaty, caramel hue. Named for its distinct tiger-like stripes, this bamboo flooring offers a new style and color not found in traditional bamboo.
BuildDirect also offers a variety of colors through their line of Yanchi handscraped bamboo floors, such as espresso, light caramel, gunstock, merlot and vanilla. The handscraped bamboo floors are made of premium select grade flooring and will appeal to anyone looking to add a rustic feel to their project.
“We’re really expanding our offering when it comes to bamboo flooring,” said Rob Banks. “While it’s great that consumers are demanding an environmentally-friendly flooring option, we want to make sure that we are competitive in providing quality and style choices. We are known for our great prices, but we also want our customers to know that when it comes to selection, we can’t be beat.”
Aside from the handscraped and strand woven bamboo floors, BuildDirect also offers various options under their Yanchi line, including engineered, and wide plank among others.
