Outdoor Bamboo Flooring Or Antiseptic Wood, Which One Is Better?
Outdoor Bamboo Flooring or Anticorrosive Wood? Which One Is Better
Generally speaking, you can also choose anti-corrosion wood flooring for outdoor use. The advantages of anti-corrosion wood flooring are that they are natural with beautiful wood grain, and safe. The anti-corrosion wood retains its original color, slightly green. It is easy to paint and stain. According to the design requirements, it can achieve beautiful effects and improve the stability of the wood. Anti-corrosion wood is more important for the protection of outdoor wooden structures.
Outdoor bamboo flooring is generally heavy bamboo flooring. The material selection of heavy bamboo flooring is more refined than that of ordinary bamboo boards. It is processed through a series of production: dehumidification, drying, anti-corrosion, moisture-proof, gluing, high temperature, high pressure, polishing and other processes. It is a new outdoor anti-corrosion panels. It has low dry shrinkage and wet expansion rate, not easy to deform, anti-corrosion, waterproof and weather-resistant, it also has strong stability, and is very suitable for outdoor use.
The differences between heavy bamboo flooring and anticorrosive wood flooring
What is the performance of the two floors?
Heavy bamboo flooring is made from compressed bamboo fibers with high temperature and high heat through 2700-ton machines, so it can be said to be very fine. It has also been steamed and dried, so it has a higher density and is also better in wear resistance. Anti-corrosion wood flooring has been treated with anti-corrosion, and there will be preservatives on the surface, so it will have certain anti-corrosion properties.
How about the results after using it for a long time?
Heavy bamboo flooring, after being used for a long time, contains substances such as sugar and protein, so once it has been exposed to the sun for a long time, it is easy to crack and mold. Anticorrosive wood flooring has the advantage of containing moisture itself, so after long-term using, deformation may occur.
How about the maintenance?
In comparison, the maintenance of heavy bamboo flooring is still very simple. It only requires cleaning, regular repairs and adjustments, while, anti-corrosion wood floors needed to be maintained through surface treatment agents, so the maintenance cost itself is relatively high.
How long can outdoor bamboo flooring be used?
Bamboo flooring is characterized of high density, good toughness, high strength, durability, not easily deformed, smooth texture, soft color, elegant and generous. Moisture-proof and mold-free are also the major advantages. It is flame retardant, anti-static, and is easy to install.
The service life of bamboo flooring is very long, normally it can reach about 20 years. However, outdoor bamboo floorings are often trampled on, exposed to the sun and rain all year round, and some users worry that their lifespan will not be that long. In fact, generally outdoor bamboo floorings have a service life of 10-15 years. If the quality is good, 20 years is no problem. Therefore, there is no need to worry about replacement within a short period of use.
