What products are made from bamboo? It’s often one of the first questions people ask when they are starting to learn about this amazing plant. I usually answer with the rhetorical question: What products can be made from wood? Fact is, everything that can be made from wood can also be made with bamboo. However, the advantage of bamboo is that it grows incredibly fast, that it can be harvested on an annual basis without damaging or having to re-plant the plantation or forest, and that bamboo has some superior mechanical properties compared to traditional timbers.
There are currently thousands of commercial bamboo products on the market, and new innovative uses and applications are added every day. This goes from construction materials to food, medicine, musical instruments, fabrics, paper pulp, fencing, basketry, utensils, bicycles, and so on… Therefor te better question would be: What products cannot be made from bamboo? Or as the ancient Asian saying goes:
"A man is born in a bamboo cradle and goes away in a bamboo coffin. Everything in between is possible with bamboo!"
