House of Bamboo Sustainability Actions

Uses third-party product checks

House of Bamboo says its products have been checked by outside bodies such as Global GreenTag, which verifies products against environmental standards, and Declare, a disclosure system that helps buyers understand what is in a product and how it affects the environment. The company also says its bamboo is FSC certified, meaning the material is linked to forest management rules that aim to protect biodiversity and community rights. These checks are meant to give buyers more evidence than a simple marketing claim.

Publishes life-cycle data

The brand says its engineered bamboo ranges have Environmental Product Declarations, or EPDs. An EPD is a standard report that shows a product’s environmental impact across its life cycle, including carbon footprint. House of Bamboo says this gives builders and designers clearer data when comparing materials. It also says the products can contribute to LEED and BREEAM credits, which are points used in green building rating systems.

Promotes bamboo as a lower-impact material

House of Bamboo explains that bamboo matures in about 3 to 5 years, grows back without replanting, and can absorb carbon as it grows. The company also compares bamboo with hardwood, concrete, steel, and aluminium on embodied carbon, which means the emissions created when a material is made and brought to market. It presents bamboo as a material that can reduce waste, use less water, and support biodiversity when managed well.

Shares structural test results

The company says Deakin University independently tested its engineered laminated bamboo beams and found compressive strengths of 50 to 65 MPa, a measure of how much pressure a material can handle. This kind of testing matters because it helps show whether bamboo can work in real building projects, not just in theory. House of Bamboo uses this result to support the case for bamboo as a serious construction material.
