- Eco-friendly, renewable resource
Bamboo grows extremely fast, reaching maturity after just six years, compared with sixty years for hardwood forests – a beautiful, natural solution for a green future
- Tough and durable
moboo Strand Woven Bamboo flooring is extremely dense and hard. It has twice the indentation resistance of Red Oak. ( Janke test 2600 Psi Vs. Red Oak 1200 Psi )
- Hypoallergenic
moboo Flooring is hypoallergenic – it is non-pollutant, termite and allergy resistant, with emission levels much lower than W.H.O standards (E1.0.0155PPM). It is an extremely healthy and safe choice for you and your family.
- High stability
moboo Flooring is less susceptible to changes in temperature and humidity compared with traditional timber floors.
- Scratch resistant
moboo Flooring is finished with up to nine layers of highest quality Klumpp and Treffert coatings. This durable, scratch-resistant, low gloss finish provides a hygienic, easy to clean, floor solution for your home.
- Easy installation
Available in Tongue & Groove and Uniclic systems
- Residential and commercial application
moboo Flooring is suitable for both residential and commercial applications.
Bamboo Flooring Specs and Technical.
- Abrasion resistance
Bamboo flooring tested according to ASTM C501 (H-22 Calibrated wheels loaded with 1000 gram weight at 70 RPM for 1000 cycles) weight loss = .349 grams. The test we have done for abrasion resistance showed that moboo finish is one of the toughest to be found in the wood flooring industry.
- Flammability
Bamboo flooring tested according to ASTM E648 Critical Radiant Panel Test. Passes with a CLASS I rating per NFPA “Life Safety Code”. (Can be used in all classes of buildings.)
- Smoke density
Bamboo flooring tested according to ASTM E622 pass = 450 or less, passes with 269 flaming mode and 329 non-flaming mode.
- Chemical and stain resistance
Bamboo flooring tested with the following chemical reagents finish was unaffected: Acetic Acid (5%) Acetone Ammonium Hydroxide (10%) Toluene
Detergent Solution Ethyl Alcohol (50%) Hydrochloric Acid (10%) Turpentine Heavy Duty (.025%) Hydrogen Peroxide (3%) Soap Solution (1%) Sodium Hydroxide (1%)
- Indentation resistance
Bamboo flooring according to ASTM 1037 (Janka Ball Hardness) showed and average hardness of 1640. (27% harder than northern red oak and 14% harder than hard maple)
- Dimensional stability
Bamboo flooring according to standard method for wood flooring showed a dimensional change coefficient of .00144. (50% more stable than red oak)
- Slip resistance
Bamboo flooring according to ASTM D2047 = results 0.71 coefficient of friction. Static efficient 0f 590 exceeds the OSHA recommendation for level surfaces in the workplace.
- Compressive strength
Bamboo flooring according to ASTM D3043-87 A = results A. Parallel to Grain = 7,549 PSI B. Perpendicular to Grain = 2,566 PSI C. Flat wise = 16,925 PSI at 50% Strain. (Load to compress to ½ thickness.)
- Bending strength
Bamboo flooring tested according to ASTM D3043-87 result = 13,608 PSI BENDING ELASTICITY MODULUS 943,443 PSI.
- Shear strength
Bamboo flooring tested according to BRITISH STANDARD # 373 result = Parallel to Grain 1365.
- Tensile strength
Bamboo flooring tested according to ATM D3500-90 A result = Parallel to Grain 15,290 PSI.
