MOSO® Bamboo products are CO2 neutral and as sustainable wall covering offer a natural look, low emissions and a wide range of colours and textures.
The wall covering in an interior is very decisive for the atmosphere in a building. Applying a natural wall covering, such as bamboo, offers the opportunity to make the atmosphere warmer and more pleasant. Even in a modern interior, in combination with, for example, steel and concrete, bamboo provides a warm element.
Bamboo wallcovering is easy to combine with bamboo floors, furniture and ceilings and offers several advantages over other materials:
A bamboo wallcovering can be realized in various ways. MOSO® offers a number of products in its range for this purpose. The choice of product depends on the substrate, the combination with other (bamboo) materials and the design.
Hotel Jakarta Amsterdam is the greenest hotel in the Netherlands. Various bamboo applications have been installed throughout the building, including the wall finish made of bamboo beams. The beams, in a light Side Pressed Caramel optic, are custom-made by MOSO® and are also used in the ceiling covering. In combination with the darker colour bamboo floor and the unique tropical inner garden, an atmosphere is created in which nature prevails.
People perform better and feel more comfortable in a natural environment. By (partially) adding bamboo to the walls of a building, a natural atmosphere can quickly be added to a basically decorated room. This can be in the form of a wall finish but also with furniture. If desired, the bamboo wallcovering can be provided with additional acoustic properties by means of perforations or milled-out patterns.
MOSO® Bamboo Veneer and Flexbamboo (bamboo strips on a mesh backing) are very flexible and can be pressed or glued on many different surfaces. Veneer and Flexbamboo are ideal for creating round shapes and offer a relatively inexpensive solution.
The MOSO® Bamboo 1-Ply Panel is a thick bamboo veneer, which is less flexible than veneer or Flexbamboo. These panels are used, for example, on fire-resistant walls or doors. The desired result is achieved by pressing the panel onto another material.
Solid Bamboo Panels and Beams can be used as wallcoverings. The thickness of these panels can be chosen depending on the desired depth effect. Solid Bamboo Panels can be applied with improved acoustic properties by perforating the sheets if required. Also, wall furniture is often produced from panels and beams.
MOSO® offers CO2 neutral, durable bamboo products for every type of wallcovering. An official life cycle analysis (LCA), conducted by TU Delft according to ISO 14040/44, proves that MOSO® solid bamboo products are CO2 neutral or better over their full product lifecycle. Partly thanks to these results, MOSO® bamboo products can be used to achieve additional credits for sustainable building certification such as LEED and BREEAM.
MOSO® supplies bamboo products for interior applications in the styles High Density® Side Pressed and Plain Pressed, in the colours Natural and Caramel. These optics can easily be combined with the different bamboo floors, but also with beams for window frames and ceiling finishes. MOSO® Bamboo board material is also available in the optic High Density® Tiger, a mix of Natural and Caramel.
Worldwide there are numerous examples of bamboo wall coverings, ranging from subdued natural walls to striking eye-catchers in famous interior designs.
