Are the bamboo products companies devastating bamboo in Colombia?No, we aren't. The guadua bamboo cutting is regulated for the National Government, who is very strict when giving the permissions to cut this species.
How long can bamboo made products last? Under normal conditions, the bamboo made products last even more than twenty years.
Why does guadua bamboo have stains?The guadua bamboo stains are made by moss that proliferate in the humid tropical environment of the bamboo plantations. Once the bamboo is dry, the moss growing stops, leaving a stain that beautifies and makes of it a unique or hard-to-find product.
How do you immunize the guadua bamboo products? This process is made by immersion in a suspension of water and bamboo immunizer (Borax + Borax Acid)
Do children work in Arangoa Factory?No, they don't. The production process is made by men who used to be coffee collectors and the finishing process is made by women that are heads of the household.
Is
the appeareance of fissures in the bamboo products possible ?Yes, it is. But the fissures that may appear in the bamboo products are very superficial, so the products are never structurally affected. In the same way as the stains above mentioned , the little fissures make of these products unique pieces. The reason of the appereance of these fissures is that the guadua bamboo wall fibers and nodes work in perpendicular direction during the drying process. These little fissures, that are typical in the big tropical bamboo plants may appear even if they have mechanical drying process. |
