The same process increases the dimensional stability and density of the product – making it very hard. The result is a very strong and sturdy decking board superior in performance to the best tropical hardwood species, without compromising the environment: Official carbon footprint studies executed by the Technical University Delft, have shown that Bamboo X-treme is CO2 neutral over the full life cycle. Because of the stability, a head side tongue and groove connection is possible (not possible in hardwood), making installation relatively easy. The same applies to the maintenance, as becomes clear through the instruction movie available via www.moso.eu/youtube Furthermore, the Bamboo X-treme decking board has a beautiful dark brown hardwood look and besides the normal size (137mm) now is also available in two broader boards of 155mm and 185mm.
