Bamboo Benchtops: The Better Alternative Article
Bamboo Connection

Every home should have a spectacular bench top. Granite, wood, marble, stone, laminate, the list can go on. However, have you considered adding bamboo onto that list?

Between stone and wooden bench tops there is a common annoyance from customers for both. Stone provides a classy and sophisticated look to a kitchen, but can be extremely cold in winter. Wooden bench tops make kitchens look cozy and warm but are extremely susceptible to damage by heat. Bamboo provides the perfect balance between both. Warm in winter, cool in summer and undamaged by heat they are the perfect choice for your kitchen.

Bamboo is highly cost effective but quality is not substituted. Any dull kitchen can be brightened by the warm ambience of this natural product and will make your kitchen look spectacular. The grains accentuate the bamboo stalk and will provide a unique look to your kitchen.

Putting the aesthetical benefits aside, bamboo bench tops are high in their practicality. Save money on coasters or mats as you will not be needing them for your bamboo bench top. Move any hot pan DIRECTLY from your stove to your bamboo bench top without leaving a single mark. The actual bamboo plant is not affected by heat or cold so it creates a product that mimics this. Areas that experience constant water exposure (i.e. the sink) will not harm your bench top.

Bamboo bench tops are also fairly able to withstand scratching as well. We sell our bench tops in solid raw bamboo plants to prevent damage via transport. Once at home, simply seal with any clear varnish found in any hardware store. If over time there is a large build up of scratches, just sand it down and re-varnish for a bench top that is as good as new.

Our bench tops are also safe from warping and shrinking and would make a cost effective, stunning but practical edition to your kitchen.
