Bamboo and wood have the same positive properties in many respects; bamboo is even slightly stronger than wood. And there is a big difference in the growth speed of the materials. A tree needs decades to grow tall, while bamboo can be harvested quicker. This makes it part of a short carbon cycle, which means that no "old" CO2 is released during harvesting. The place where the bamboo is harvested also recovers faster. Why choose 100% FSC Bamboo? Point-Virgule chooses 100% FSC bamboo. This label guarantees a positive balance between the entire ecosystem in and around the bamboo forest, the economy, and social aspects such as working conditions and the relationship with the local community. Together we strive for a sustainable future!
