Bamboo Thematic Network
| Copy Link | |
| Name (native language): | Thematisches Netzwerk Bambus |
| Coordinating organisation: | Institute of Wood Technology and Wood Biology |
| Description: | The use of bamboo increases within Europe due to its exceptional elastomechanical properties and due to its decorative nature. Fast growing bamboos are an interesting renewable resource and are available in Asia in big quantities. There is no tradition in Europe to plant an use bamboo and therefore the knowledge about the mechanical properties of bamboo and about its processing is not really widespread even under scientists, woodworkers and carpenters. The network brings experts from different countries in the world together and may help to overcome this lack of knowledge in Europe while the partners of the Asian countries may collect knowledge on typical European requirements with regard to raw-materials as wells as products made from bamboo. |
