HARVESTING
Sustainable bamboo harvesting involves selective cutting, ensuring mature culms (typically 3–5 years old) are harvested while younger shoots remain for regeneration. This method allows continuous growth, ensuring bamboo resources remain intact and can be tapped into again and again.
By using rotational harvesting cycles and avoiding clear-cutting, bamboo clumps stay healthy, sequester carbon, and provide a renewable, eco-friendly material for construction.
PRESERVATION
Our 9-step bamboo treatment process is adapted from Base Bahay Foundation’s method. This proven approach prepares raw bamboo for construction use through steps such as grading, pre-cleaning, controlled soaking, boron treatment, careful drying, and final inspection.
At this stage, our treated bamboo is available for purchase for a wide range of building projects, with islandwide delivery available.
PROCESSING
After treatment, selected poles are processed into different bamboo components. Depending on the application, poles may be split into slats, flattened into boards, sliced into decorative bamboo bones, or cut into roofing tiles. Customised outputs, like lidi bundles, are produced on a per-project basis.
Each step ensures consistent sizing and reliable performance for use across our building systems.
PRE-FABRICATION
Once processed, bamboo components are assembled into pre-fabricated elements like CBFT wall panels. Working in a controlled workshop environment allows for precision, quality checks, and reduced waste.
These components arrive on site ready for quick installation, streamlining construction and ensuring each piece fits cleanly into the overall structure.
