Hard and durable - many options too!
Our bamboo panels come in 2440x1220mm size (in up to 7 thickness options) and can be used to make a wide range of internal joinery items. The high quality ply structure is an incredibly strong and versatile product that cuts and finishes well for a beautiful, natural look.
Use bamboo panels anywhere
Bamboo panels are ideal for any wooden application, from wall coverings and ceilings, bench tops and kitchen joinery to shelving, furniture, staircases (including treads, risers, stringers and handrails) to doors, shelving and more – whether in the residential or commercial environment. The use of these panels is only limited by your imagination!
The panels are manufactured using advanced European Homag technology, and are cross-laminated to ensure long-lasting stability and durability. Panels are made from 100 percent rapidly renewable bamboo.
Every panel uses continuous bamboo; there are no breaks or seams across the surface of the panel. The edge offers a beautiful grain pattern that does not need to be edge-banded. The unique edge grain is a signature look of a Plantation bamboo panel.

Vertical bamboo panel – the outside surface of the bamboo panel is manufactured using vertical strips of bamboo laminated together, giving more of a striped, uniform look. The grain runs along the longest length of the panel.
Compressed bamboo panel – the outside surface of the bamboo panel is made of compressed bamboo fibers, giving a more natural, wood grain look (similar to compressed bamboo flooring). The grain runs along the longest length of the panel. A compressed panel is harder, more dense and heavier than a similar sized vertical panel.

Vertical bamboo panel dimensions are 2440 x 1220 mm – thicknesses of 7mm, 10mm, 15mm, 18mm, 20mm, 30mm and 40mm; plus a 19mm vertical solid bamboo panel (non-ply structure).

The bamboo panels are supplied unfinished, allowing you to choose from a wide range of finishing options, whether it be oil, clear lacquer, polyurethane or stain. We recommend the bamboo panels are well sealed on all sides to protect them from water penetration, etc.
Bamboo panels are easy to work with as they cut and finish to a high quality standard – and come in two colours, “natural” and “coffee” (where the bamboo has been cooked a little longer, caramalising the sugars, resulting in the slightly darker colour).
Add some natural beauty to your new kitchen with bamboo!
Plantation bamboo panels can look amazing as bench-tops and cabinetry in kitchens – or even as vanity units in bathrooms. The “natural” or “coffee” coloured panels can be finished in a wide range of colours and coatings to your specification.
We suggest working with your local joiner or builder to make your bench-top to your specific size and design needs. Plantation bamboo panel dimensions and types are outlined above.

Create a unique statement.
Plantation ply panels can be used and made into a wide variety of ceiling panels. The bamboo panels can also be laser cut with decorative designs to create a unique and natural look. The bamboo panels come in 2440x1220mm size and a range of thicknesses, as detailed above.
Our Dutch supplier, MOSO Bamboo made innovative bamboo panels, as seen in Madrid’s Barajas International Airport terminal. These bamboo ceiling panels consist of five layers of vertical bamboo veneer and two layers of fiberglass, which have been pressed together to form a multi-ply plank. The individual veneer layers are pressed cross-wise to ensure stability and flexibility of the panel. The panels measure 2000 x 100 x 5mm and are available in Natural or Coffee colour. They are pre-finished with oil. Because of the flexibility of the veneer and fiberglass, the panels can be curved, creating a distinctive and inspiring ceiling, like no other.
To install, the panels must be screwed onto a frame. Please enquire direct to Plantation for more information on the available fixings.
The panel is impregnated with a fire retardant to meet very strict fire norms in Europe and the USA.

Combine the natural warmth of bamboo with the acoustic and decorative properties of perforations.
Plantation bamboo panels can quite easily be made into top performing acoustic panels, adding value to any area that requires a high level of acoustic performance. With the appropriate acoustic blanketing applied, bamboo acoustic panels have the ability to absorb noise, without compromising aesthetics.
Bamboo is a natural product and the warmth and individuality of each panel creates a stunning look. It is an excellent substrate, with good natural acoustic properties, resulting in increased noise reduction. Plantation recommends a product such as Autex AAB 35-50 felt being bonded to the back of the bamboo panels to create high performing acoustic properties. The bamboo panel perforates and can be laser cut easily and smoothly to create a wide range of excellent designs to suit your taste. Finish with clear lacquer to enhance the natural, unique look of the bamboo or alternatively stain to incorporate the Acoustic Panels into your design scheme.
Pre-finished panels avoid the need for additional on-site trades after installation, saving on-site time and cost. Plantation will work closely with you to achieve the design, look and finish you are wanting for your specific environment. Our team can put you in touch with partners who can create the specific look you are after, creating high quality acoustic panels from the Plantation range of interior panel products.
Custom sizes, cut-outs for utilities, and negative edge details can also be arranged. Bamboo ceiling tiles can also be manufactured in either flat or perforated finish, with many laser-cut design options available.
Please enquire for further details.
Bamboo is an environmentally friendly choice and is ideal for residential and commercial use.
