Product Description

Standard size glossy heavy bamboo decking is manufactured through strand weaving technology with bamboo fibers compressed under hydraulic pressure of 1,200 tons or more. The material is saturated with phenolic resin and undergoes carbonization at 180-200°C. This thermal treatment removes organic sugars and starches from the fiber structure, producing uniform amber coloration throughout the board cross-section. The glossy surface finish is applied through a UV-cured aluminum oxide coating system with gloss level between 85-90. The decking boards are produced in standard dimensions of 1860mm length, 140mm width, and 20mm thickness. Material density ranges from 1.15 g/cm³ to 1.25 g/cm³. The strand woven construction provides structural properties suitable for exterior flooring applications requiring resistance to mechanical wear, moisture exposure, and temperature variation across seasonal cycles.

Core Product Properties

A

Thermal Carbonization

Boards undergo carbonization at 180-200°C, removing organic compounds that attract decay organisms. This process reduces equilibrium moisture content to 8-12%, decreasing hygroscopic expansion and contraction in outdoor environments.

B

Gloss Coating System

UV-cured aluminum oxide coating with 85-90 gloss level increases surface hardness and reduces moisture penetration. The coating system provides abrasion resistance for decking surfaces exposed to foot traffic and furniture movement.

C

Standard Dimensional Profile

Boards manufactured at 1860mm length, 140mm width, and 20mm thickness. Standard dimensions allow consistent installation across project sites and compatibility with conventional joist spacing systems at 400mm centers.

D

Strand Woven Density

Compression process produces material density of 1.15-1.25 g/cm³. Phenolic resin saturation fills fiber voids, creating a structure with reduced water absorption and increased load-bearing capacity.

Common Questions

What load capacity does the standard size glossy bamboo decking provide for outdoor installations?

With material density of 1.15-1.25 g/cm³ and strand woven construction, the decking supports distributed loads consistent with residential and commercial occupancy requirements. When installed on joists at 400mm centers, the boards sustain uniform loads up to 450 kg per square meter as measured under static loading conditions. Local building codes specify additional requirements for snow loads and concentrated point loads in public areas.

How does the glossy coating system perform under direct sunlight and UV exposure?

The UV-cured aluminum oxide coating provides resistance to photo-degradation when exposed to solar radiation. Accelerated weathering tests conducted at 1,500 hours show gloss retention exceeding 80% of initial values. The carbonized bamboo substrate undergoes less than 10% color shift under same test parameters. For areas with high solar intensity, annual application of UV-protective oil extends coating life and preserves surface gloss levels.

What are the recommended maintenance intervals for glossy heavy bamboo decking?

Surface cleaning with neutral pH detergent and soft brush should be performed quarterly to remove debris. Pressure washing at 5-7 MPa maximum pressure with 300mm standoff distance is permitted for deep cleaning. Reapplication of outdoor water-based oil every 12-24 months maintains the glossy appearance and water repellency. Fastener inspections should occur annually to identify any loosened clips or screws requiring adjustment.

Can standard size glossy bamboo decking be installed over uneven substructures?

The decking requires a flat, level substructure with joist spacing not exceeding 400mm centers. Uneven substrates must be corrected using adjustable pedestal systems or structural shims before installation. The 20mm board thickness provides limited flexibility for substrate irregularities exceeding 3mm over 1,000mm span. Pre-installation leveling ensures proper load distribution and prevents stress cracking at connection points.
