Our Solution

Nature's Brilliance +
Innovative Engineering

We are taking one of nature's best material, and elevating it to a level that was not thought possible before. 

Designed With a  Bottom-up Philosophy

We took years of research to first understand the underlying mechanisms of bamboo to design the optimum augmented bamboo materials.

Why Bamboo?

We chose bamboo as our base material because it's impressive array amazing properties.

One of the fastest growing plants in the planet

Absorbs CO2 and releases O2, 35% more than trees

Naturally as strong as hardwood

Abundance in supply and cheap
