Flooring materials, a core component of any building project, can play a key role in efforts to improve sustainability.

Therefore, you have to be careful where you lay bamboo flooring. For example, it’s probably not a good idea to put bamboo down in any room in your home that is exposed to water on a regular basis.

The plant is used in everything from flooring to textiles, paper and water processing, so the thought of turning to bamboo for car bodies isn't that far fetched.
