Production Technology: What is Carbonized Bamboo Wood ? Is it Bamboo? Or Wood?
It is the revolution of “Bamboo”, a material seems to be traditional, somehow it is the result of High- Tech Material studies for more than ten years.
Our Material is taken from the raw bamboo, crushing into threads, followed by Carbonization with High temperature and pressure in order to process anti-rot and anti-pest. Finally, after soaking in green adhesive and hot pressing, here comes our Carbonized Bamboo Wood.Carbonized bamboo, crushed bamboo texture can be seen on the surface.
High density texture also can be noticed on the section. For SGS related tests, It was confirmed that the density was above 1.00 and the formaldehyde was within 0.05%.
FSC certification for sustainable production.
Design Challenge: "Carbonized Bamboo Wood" is too hard to be shaped. The furniture factory almost give up to make a sample for us. luckily, we convince boss of furniture factory to help us finally.The accomplishments is amazing.
Research: When we started the project in Taiwan, there are more and more interior designers knew that they could use the eco-friendly material "Carbonized Bamboo Wood" into their projects.
Benefits of Bamboo;
Replace "wood" with "bamboo", there is no need to deforest.
Agriculture and deforestation account for 25% of Global Greenhouse gas emissions in human activities.
Fastest growing plant in the world, up to 100cm a day. Only take 5 years to be harvested.
Does not require replanting after harvesting.
100% biodegradable
Stories up to 600 tons of carbon per hectare and products oxygen.
Bamboo provides a low-carbon alternative to materials including timber, cement and steel.
Inspiration: I believe many of us share the similar childhood memory : In a leisurely afternoon, no matter what flavor of the popsicle I took out from the freezer in the grocery store, the sweetness of my heart slowly flowed in the memory, always looking forward to finish that popsicle, hoping to see “Get one more for free” words written on the stick in Taiwan. This carries out a unique temperature within people.
Project Duration: The project started in March 2020 in Taiwan.
Operation Flow: Therefore we took the shape of the popsicle sticks, taking its shape, transform into rounded the R angle and refreshing straight lines to present the various parts of the table and chair. The most outstanding part of Popsitable is its legs.
The surface is like a large version of the front of a popsicle stick. The n-shaped support the structure and the articulated structure design under the desktop. Simple but solid in space.
