Bamboo: You see it everywhere nowadays - floors, furniture, cabinetry...
So why not in folders as well?
Eco-Benefits of the TRI-PANda Envirofolder®:
- Bamboo is the fastest growing, most renewable plant on Earth.
- Over 1000 species of bamboo on the planet.
- Many bamboo species have a short growth cycle.
- Some species have actually been measured to grow over four feet in 24 hours.
- It takes in greenhouse gasses and produces oxygen - in fact, it produces 35% more oxygen than an equivalent stand of trees.
- Diversity makes bamboo adaptable to many environments.
- After harvesting, it retains & regrows from its root system, thus preventing erosion.
- Can be harvested in three to five years versus 10-20 years for most softwoods.
It is believed that if bamboo were planted on a mass basis it could completely
reverse the effects of global warming in just six years, and provide a renewable
source of food, fuel, building material, and erosion prevention.
