-After high temperature, high-pressure use of wood in the high-temperature combustion occurs under the principle of the bamboo fiber into carbonized color

Bamboo flooring is usually divided into two kinds of carbon and natural color bamboo flooring. The color of carbonization is not dyeing. It is the bamboo raw materials placed in a dedicated carbonation vessel, after high temperature, high pressure .in the high-temperature state of combustion of the principle of the bamboo fiber into carbonized color.
