Modern Bamboo floors can last up to 50 years if properly maintained. Although the average life span ranges from 20 – 25 years with normal family wear and tear. It is harder than hardwoods, which makes it extremely durable.
Modern Bamboo products are ‘termite resistant’. Our products have undergone a carbonization/heating process which eliminates starch, sugar and other components that attract termites.
Note: Similar to other construction materials, bamboo is not 100% termite proof.
Modern Bamboo flooring is made from top quality materials. We use 5-7 year old matured Mao/Moso bamboo which is most compact and durable and most suited for flooring. Modern bamboo flooring is substantially harder than Narra and subsequently has a greater scratch resistance.
Modern Bamboo flooring is more affordable than traditional hardwood (eg. Narra) not because it is weaker but because the bamboo plant matures faster compared to a hardwood tree. Hardwood trees can take up to 30years to fully mature while it only takes 3-7 years for a bamboo plant to fully mature.

Modern Bamboo flooring is treated with an industry-leading scratch resistant coating, and its density and strength surpasses almost any other flooring in the world. Bamboo flooring is durable, but similar to hardwood flooring, it is also pervious to dents, scratches, discoloration or other natural or manmade damage. Prevention is a big part of the care for bamboo floors.
- We recommend you vacuum or sweep the floor on a regular basis or as needed to remove dirt, sand or grit.
- Soak up spills immediately using a dry towel or dry mop.
- For general cleaning, use Bona Pro Hardwood Floor Cleaner & Bona Pro Hardwood Floor Mop.
- Fit furniture legs with felt tips or protective caps. Fix rolling furniture with soft rubber casters. Pick up heavy furniture or appliances; do not slide.
- You can wet-mop a bamboo floor, but make sure that the towel is nearly dry and make sure the standing water will be dried in short period of time after mopping.
- Never use any of the following products on your floor: ammonia-based cleaners, acrylic finishes, wax-based products, detergents, bleach, polishes, oil soap, abrasive cleaning soaps, or acidic materials such as vinegar. Never apply wax treatments to your floor.
- Use interior and exterior doormats at entrances to prevent dirt and moisture from being tracked onto the floor. Area rugs are also recommended in front of kitchen sinks and in high traffic areas. Do not use rugs with solid rubber or vinyl backings. Rugs must be made of a breathable material to prevent moisture entrapment. We recommend using a breathable rug underlay. Mesh or grid patterns are best.
Yes, bamboo flooring can be installed in a kitchen area. Bamboo is fairly resilient but you would need to be careful to wipe away any water spills or accidents straight away, so that liquid does not soak into the flooring.
We cannot recommend our bamboo floors for use in the bathroom as they are only water resistant and not waterproof. However, our mother company, Cxf Design Center supplies SPC Flooring (woodlike and waterproof) which can be used in bathroom.
