Symphony Series

Yes. Symphony Series cladding profiles can be considered for commercial cladding as an alternative to timber cladding systems. It is especially relevant for architects, interior designers, landscapers or developers looking for a distinctive timber like material with high stabilty, strength and sustainablity performance. Its ideal for wall or ceiling panneling, fencing, screening, joinery or exterior cladding. It has a EPD, Greentag, FSC and BAL ratings to support easy specification.

Strand woven bamboo takes bamboo fibre, shreds or splits it, then compresses it under very high pressure and heat with a resin binder into a dense, solid block. This removes most of the natural hollow structure of the culm, so the result is harder and more stable than the raw material, often rivalling or exceeding hardwoods like spotted gum on density and wear resistance. The grain looks more textured and mottled, since the process compresses shredded fibre rather than keeping strips intact. Due to both heat and compression it is a higher density and ideal for exterior or projects than needs higher wear resistance such as in coastal regions. Laminated bamboo keeps the bamboo in strips or slats, planed flat and glued together in layers, similar to how laminated veneer lumber or laminated timber is made. It's lighter and less dense than strand woven bamboo, but it keeps a cleaner, more linear grain pattern that reads as more "natural strip" bamboo, and it's generally easier to machine and work with for joinery. The natural palette is similar to a raw pine timber and can be stained to achieve a range of finishes.
