Bamboo flooring is evolving as a popular choice to standard hardwood flooring as it has material resemblances to hardwood but is more long-lasting, eco-friendly, and endurable. That can guide to cupping, distortion, and bump of the material. Bamboo Is Not Green: an Eco-Friendly ‘Problem.’ What Is Bamboo Flooring?
