Bamboo has a rich history in practical applications, from scaffolding to pipe manufacturing, reflecting its versatility in construction. Its sustainable cultivation supports carbon fixation, air purification, and soil erosion prevention, offering growth opportunities to stakeholders.
Builders utilise bamboo in structures due to its natural flexibility, which allows it to withstand earthquakes by bending instead of breaking. This elasticity also makes bamboo suitable for curved applications like sculptures and handles. Bamboo's durability and resistance to warping and pests contribute to its appeal in humid environments. Increasing investments in eco-friendly infrastructure and consumer awareness of bamboo's benefits are driving sales.
The bamboo market is driven by health benefits and a rising trend towards sustainable products across residential, commercial, and industrial sectors. Bamboo shoots offer notable health advantages, including anti-inflammatory effects, cholesterol balance, and weight loss. They are rich in vitamins, fibre, and potassium, aiding digestion and blood pressure regulation. Consumer awareness of healthy food products is expected to boost the market.
