With these types of floors the bamboo strips are compressed in such a way that the fibres undergo a change in form. The result looks very trendy. The design look at the light colour shades (lightly carbonated) appeal greatly to the general public. Typical examples are 15-SW-BAMBOO-JULIETA, 15-SW-BAMBOO-ROBUSTO, and 15-SW-BAMBOO-TORO. As far as quality and durability are concerned, a bamboo top layer is much harder than oak (oak: Brinell hardness of 34 ad compared to Bamboo 40). Since bamboo is being used increasingly in the most diverse contexts, Lalegno has extended its range to 10 different finishes and colour shades.
