Anji Mountain Bamboo Rugs -
The Anji
Mountain Bamboo Rug
Co. is a premier source of
bamboo and natural fiber area
rugs. A family owned business
since 2003, the company is
founded on the idea that only
natural resources will be
tolerated. Bamboo is an
incredible resource and fits
perfectly with the Anji
Mountain business model.
Bamboo can be harvested in
anywhere from 1 to 5 years
depending on the species.
Hardwoods like oak can take up
to 40 years to mature before
they are ready for harvesting.
Believe it or not some species
can grow up to 3 feet per day!
With almost one-million acres
of forest lost each week,
using bamboo as a substitute
can drastically reduce that
figure. It can replace
virtually any wood application
including flooring, furniture
and other various building
materials. Not only is it
stronger than wood, it absorbs
carbon dioxide and releases
35% more oxygen into the
atmosphere. Many people
associate bamboo with the
Giant Panda as it makes up 99%
of their diet. Rest assured
that Pandas do not eat the
species of bamboo used in
these area
rugs. All in all,
bamboo is truly a remarkable
resource and the versatility
available throughout this
collection will exceed all of
your decorating needs, enjoy!
