		<description><![CDATA[What is dye-infused bamboo and why is it cool?]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Strandwoven Colors is a new line of Strandwoven Bamboo that is designed to imitate more exotic woods and looks than regular bamboo alone.  It is dye-infused prior to compression allowing for unique and varying grain patterns that are not stained on, but consistent throughout the board.  This allows for the color and grain pattern to remain intact through as many sanding and refinishing cycles as desired.  The material is still our classic Strandwoven Bamboo (two and a half times as hard as oak and exponentially more stable) as well as our Aluminum Oxide-free finish, but it is a unique and quite striking way to get exotic wood looks without sacrificing those exotic trees, many of which are fairly rare.  Ebony Sandalwood, Thai Teak, and Wenge are the three we have out so far and a new one, Sapele, has just recently emerged from our research and development process.  An engineered format is in the testing stages and we look forward to nearly endless possibilities for styles and designs in the years to come.  Come check in out in the Bamboo-Flooring section of our website!</p>
