Bamboo is actually 16% harder than maple, making it a superior material for furniture. Our unique line of bedroom furniture is handcrafted using flattened bamboo strips. Bamboo is a grass that grows up to 2 feet per day. It has an extensive root system that continually sends up new shoots, naturally replenishing itself. It does not require replanting, making it one of the world's most renewable resources. Bamboo holds the promise of a sustainable cost effective and ecologically responsible alternative to the wide spread clear cutting of our world's forests. We proudly present to you our Cassama line of sustainable bamboo furniture..
