True or not: Is bamboo harder than oak?
Yes, that's right. In fact, bamboo is harder than the wood of an oak. There is a special measuring method that determines the degree of hardness of a wood. A steel ball is pressed into the wood with a certain force. The pressed-in area is then measured and it is calculated how hard the wood is. All tree species and also bamboo can be classified and compared in this way. The result: bamboo is harder than oak and many other woods.
Bamboo is not even a tree. From a botanical point of view, it belongs to the grasses and has amazing properties. Bamboo is elastic and stable at the same time, which is why there are more and more products made of bamboo. These include, for example, parquet flooring, furniture, kitchen utensils and even bicycle frames. Furthermore, bamboo is ahead in terms of sustainability. It is the fastest growing plant in the world. What takes a tree decades to grow, a bamboo cane takes just 4 years. Bamboo grows up to 35 metres high in its first year and then hardens. This makes bamboo so ecological and also cheap to buy.
Franz Mensch has had a versatile bamboo range in its programme since 2009:

Bamboo
Bamboo belongs to the grass family and is a great alternative to wood because it grows back many times faster and is therefore available in large quantities. Bamboo is particularly hard-wearing, flexible and sustainable. In the NatureStar range from Franz Mensch you will find, for example, bamboo finger food skewers, tongs or food markers in different lengths and designs. Bamboo skewers are very suitable for restaurants, catering or party services to decorate food.
Which is better: bamboo or wood for disposable tableware and skewers?
Bamboo can be picked faster than wood. Some types of bamboo grow up to one metre per day! Bamboo also has many advantages when it comes to recycling - it is 100% compostable, so you can dispose of it in your organic waste or compost. In addition, bamboo is antibacterial and tasteless, making it an ideal alternative in the food industry. It absorbs four times more CO2 than other plants. Furthermore, bamboo reaches a size of about 35 metres in only 6 months and thus produces more usable material than trees.
Is bamboo good for the environment?
Sweet grasses such as bamboo develop underground root systems with the help of which they quickly regenerate and form new culms. This property allows them to absorb a particularly large amount of carbon dioxide from the air. Furthermore, bamboo is ahead of the game when it comes to sustainability. It is the fastest growing plant in the world. What takes a tree decades to grow, a bamboo cane takes just 4 years. Bamboo grows up to 35 metres high in its first year and then hardens. This is what makes bamboo so ecological and also cheap to buy.
Is bamboo harder than oak?

A steel ball is pressed into the wood with a certain force. The pressed-in area is then measured and it is calculated how hard the wood is. All tree species and also bamboo can be classified and compared in this way. The result: bamboo is harder than oak and many other woods.
