Economy Bamboo Horse Panels Manufacturers

What are the core criteria for workers to make preliminary selections of bamboo raw materials? ​

Growth age is the basic standard for selection​
The growth age of bamboo is closely related to the performance of Economy Bamboo Horse Panel, which contains the natural law of plant growth. In the early growth stage of bamboo, the fiber is still in the development stage and the texture is relatively soft. If it is cut down at this time to make Stable Panels, the strength and toughness of the panels are obviously insufficient, and it is difficult to bear the weight and frequent activities of horses. A factory once tried to use young bamboo to make panels, but in the simulated stable load-bearing test, the panels showed large-scale deformation and fracture. Bamboo with too long growth years, although the fiber is hard, is often prone to hollowness and material aging, and it also cannot meet production needs. The internal structure of hollow bamboo is destroyed, and its compressive resistance is greatly reduced, which cannot adapt to the high-intensity use scenarios of bamboo horse panels. ​
When screening, workers will give priority to bamboo in the appropriate growth stage. Bamboo at this stage generally needs to go through several years of growth, its fibers are dense and elastic, and the cell structure is stable. With a deep understanding of the growth patterns of local bamboo, Kuntai Bamboo and Wood workers can accurately determine the growth age of bamboo. They will observe the external characteristics of bamboo, such as the color and the spacing between bamboo nodes. Bamboo with emerald green color and uniform and moderate spacing between bamboo nodes is often the right raw material. The bamboo horse board made by high temperature and high pressure process has compression and bending resistance far exceeding ordinary wood, and can maintain good structural integrity even under frequent trampling and collision by horses. ​

The material state of bamboo is a key consideration​
The appearance and internal state of bamboo are important bases in the screening process. Workers will carefully inspect each bamboo like doctors diagnose a disease. The first is the epidermis inspection. Those bamboos with obvious insect bites, mildew, and cracks will be immediately removed. The internal fibers of insect-eaten bamboo are destroyed by termites, forming a honeycomb structure, and the strength is greatly reduced; mildewed bamboo not only affects the appearance of the panel, but may also release harmful substances during use, endangering the health of horses; and bamboo with cracks is prone to further cracking during subsequent processing and use, reducing the stability of the bamboo horse board.​
In addition to the defects visible to the naked eye, workers will also use simple methods such as knocking to determine whether there is hollowness or hidden damage inside the bamboo. Hollow bamboo sounds hollow when knocked, and the material is loose and cannot withstand greater pressure; hidden damage may expand during processing, causing quality problems in the panel. Once, a worker found a bamboo that looked intact during screening. By knocking, he judged that there was a hidden damage inside. After cutting and verification, the loss of subsequent production was avoided. Only those bamboos with smooth and flawless skin and tight internal structure are qualified to enter the next processing link. This rigorous screening process ensures that each bamboo horse board has excellent water and corrosion resistance, and can remain stable even in the humid environment of the stable. ​

Dimensions must meet production requirements ​
The size specifications of bamboo should not be ignored either. It is closely related to production technology and product design. Different production processes and product designs have specific requirements for the length and diameter of bamboo. Workers will select bamboo of appropriate size according to the production plan. If the bamboo is too short, it may not meet the size requirements of the panel, resulting in the bamboo horse board produced not meeting the standard; if the diameter is too thin or too thick, it will affect the uniformity and stability of the panel during processing, resulting in inconsistent thickness of the board and affecting the use effect. ​
In the production process of Kuntai Bamboo and Wood, each bamboo must undergo strict size measurement and screening. The factory is equipped with professional measuring tools to accurately measure the length and diameter of the bamboo. At the same time, workers will also screen the bamboo according to the degree of bending. Bamboo that is too bent will be difficult to ensure accuracy during processing and will be eliminated. Only bamboo that meets the standards can enter the subsequent processes of opening, impregnation molding, pressing, etc., and finally be made into an economical bamboo horse board with high strength and high density. This strict control of size specifications not only ensures the quality of the product, but also improves production efficiency and reduces the waste of raw materials.​

Environmental protection throughout the entire screening process​
As a company certified by FSC, CE, SGS, ISO9001 and ISO14001, Kuntai Bamboo and Wood always incorporates environmental protection concepts into every aspect of production, and the selection of bamboo raw materials is no exception. When selecting, workers will avoid choosing bamboo that has been treated with a large amount of pesticides or chemical fertilizers to ensure the green and environmentally friendly properties of the raw materials. In the procurement of raw materials, the company will cooperate with bamboo farmers who follow the concept of environmentally friendly planting to ensure the quality of bamboo from the source. ​
These strictly screened bamboos become environmentally friendly materials with low formaldehyde release after being made into bamboo horse boards. Through advanced processing technology, the use of chemicals such as glue is reduced, making bamboo horse boards not only suitable for stable construction, but also widely used in various architectural decoration fields such as residential areas, garden landscapes, stations and docks. Its natural texture and elegant color not only meet the architectural demand for aesthetics, but also achieve the goal of green environmental protection, becoming an ideal substitute for high-end wood. In some places with extremely high environmental protection requirements, such as children's playgrounds and nursing homes, Kuntai Bamboo and Wood's bamboo horse boards have also been widely used due to their environmental advantages.
