Bamboo flooring

Yes.Well, I suppose that one could arguably exclude it because it is not "wood," but a grass, technically, but the credit also includes agfiber, which is similar—it seems clear that the intent would be to include it. Particularly when combined with the fact that everyone loves taking credit for bamboo under MRc7, so if it's "wood" there....

Jason & Tristan,

For clarity reasons for all users, can you point out when a bamboo floor may have added urea formaldehyde? I can see the surfacing or sealer used on top of it to potential have addred UF or the particle board substructure, but I can't picture the bamboo having addred UF. Thanks

Josh, any commercial bamboo product is made from strips glued together. More background and some great photos in this EBN article. So that glue, i.e., binder, could be UF. Also, there could be a composite backing on a bamboo flooring product, like other flooring.

Tristan,

Thanks for the quick reply. So due to it being 'put together pieces' you would say that the bamboo flooring would be a composite product and be in this category? The composite backing, if part of the product during instalation and not a different piece of a final product, I get would fall under this.

Yes. At least, that's how I would see it, and I'd be surprised if I were wrong.

What about cork flooring? Would that count as well?
