Products Made From Bamboo
November 1, 2007 · Written by Adam
When choosing a microwave for our new home a while back, my girlfriend asked me whether they made any out of wood. Oh, how I laughed. But it seems that the reality might not be that far off. I’m not sure whether al these products source bamboo from sustainable forests, but bamboo is very fast growing and manageable and they certainly look nice and should be better for the environment than current metal and plastic options.
My favourite is this flat screen monitor from Play Engine.
Also there’s this mouse to go with it.
And there are some fancy bamboo cases for your ipod too from Temas.
Nice mouse!
Though I’m a fan of bamboo bicycles myself
[...] What about the pandas? There’s a glut of bamboo products on the market at the moment for some reason. Probably because it’s fast growing. Life Goggles talked about some of them here. [...]
I almost bought one of those bamboo monitors from a bamboo nut/grower who had some in his retail bamboo store in Central Florida. Truly a beautiful monitor and great to see people finding more creative uses for one of Earth’s most vital renewable resources.
