Bamboo products & bamboo garden materials – your complete guide
Bamboo is one of the most versatile and sustainable raw materials available today. Whether you want a sleek, modern patio, a natural garden divider, or want to add interior accents—bamboo can do it all. At Masters of Bamboo, we develop, import, and sell high-quality bamboo products and bamboo garden materials. By controlling our entire production process, we can guarantee quality, durability, and value for money. In this guide, you'll discover exactly what bamboo products are, which bamboo garden materials are available, their benefits, how to choose them, and how to use them.
What are bamboo products & garden materials?
Bamboo products are all materials made from the bamboo plant—from beams, planks, and mats to complete screens, fences, pergolas, and outdoor decking. Bamboo garden materials are specifically designed for outdoor use: think of bamboo decking, bamboo borders, bamboo fences, bamboo garden furniture, bamboo poles for construction, and bamboo mats for wall or fence finishing.
Because bamboo grows faster than trees and is renewable, it's an excellent raw material for sustainable garden materials. Want to know more about why bamboo is good for the environment? Read more here .
Why choose bamboo for your garden?
Sustainability & ecological benefits
- Bamboo grows incredibly fast and is renewable — a much faster climate-positive alternative than hardwood.
- The material stores CO₂ and grows five times faster than trees, reaching maturity after three to five years. After that, you can harvest bamboo poles annually.
- By controlling the entire production process, we at Masters of Bamboo can guarantee optimal quality and minimal waste.
Technical specifications
- Bamboo has a high tensile strength, can be extremely stable and is very versatile in applications.
- Through processes such as thermal modification or compression (as with Masters of Bamboo Nano or Thermo products), bamboo outdoor material becomes possible for intensive use.

How do you choose the right bamboo garden materials?
1. Determine your application
Is it outdoors? Then the material must be weatherproof. Is it designed for load-bearing purposes? Then pay attention to thickness and quality.
2. Pay attention to properties & treatment
Heat-treated or compressed material lasts longer. We always recommend treated bamboo for outdoor use.
3. Check size & finish
Length, thickness, color (natural vs. dark), mounting method — these determine the end result.
4. Maintenance and lifespan
Although bamboo is durable, it requires maintenance, such as cleaning and annual treatment. This significantly extends its lifespan.
Maintenance & care of bamboo products
Bamboo outdoor materials require attention to maintenance:
- Clean with Bamboo Cleaner and a soft brush then rinse.
- Treatment with oil or protective layer to prevent graying.
- Make sure that the bottom is not constantly in wet soil.
