Bamboo Thermo® Decking is suitable for outdoor applications, from commercial to residential. The incredible density of the material ensures a very durable bamboo surface or outdoor living area, with the natural feel and appearance of hardwood. Bamboo Thermo Decking remains stable and durable in any climate or conditions.
MOSO® Bamboo Thermo Decking is a solid, Thermo-Density® engineered lumber, made from compressed bamboo strips. A special process, involving thermal modification (at 392F/200C) and high pressure, provides MOSO® Bamboo Thermo with impressive hardness and stability. The performance and weathering properties of MOSO® Bamboo Thermo are very similar to outdoor-rated exotic hardwoods.
Annual cleaning of your MOSO® Bamboo Thermo® Decking is recommended. Sweep with a broom or blow off with a leaf blower any loose debris first. If you desire to keep the rich dark brown color, in addition to yearly cleaning we recommend a recoating with Messmer’s Bamboo Finish oil. Annual care and cleaning should be done with a stiff bristle brush.
MOSO® Bamboo Thermo features 4″ and 6″ deck boards with grooves on both sides, complemented with a 6” or 8” single groove perimeter board, framing your deck perfectly. Create a unique design using Bamboo Thermo that sets your projects apart. Deck boards come in a smooth or reeded profile, perfect for stairs or areas requiring more traction. The MOSO® A-symmetric Clip allows for easy installation, and variable width boards can be easily combined to create any design you want.
Thanks to our unique thermal modification process called Thermo-Density®, MOSO® Bamboo Thermo achieves the highest durability class possible within the appropriate European norms.* The Thermo-Density® process modifies and removes sugar molecules which are naturally present in untreated bamboo. With this treatment bamboo is no longer a food source for fungi and micro-organisms. Furthermore, the process increases the density – making the bamboo planks durable for any application.
* Class 1 for European norm 350 / CEN/TS 15083-2, Class 0 for European norm 152 and Class 4 for European norm 335
Moso North America is proud to partner with Simpson Strong-Tie to bring you our new Deck Planner Software™ that will help you create the outdoor space you’ve been dreaming of. Detailed renderings, construction drawings and materials lists are the information you need to build a safe, durable and sustainable deck. You will also be connected with our material suppliers in your area that will help you estimate materials costs.
MOSO® Bamboo Thermo Decking is very stable, as a result of thermally modified bamboo strips combined with High Density® compression. Even many years after installation, boards stay straight. They are more stable than any tropical hardwood and many composites. Bamboo Thermo does not warp, twist, cup or bow. In addition, expansion and contraction is extremely rare.
With MOSO® Asymmetric fasteners, installing the deck is quick and easy. The fasteners are placed in the grooved edges of the decking and screwed directly into joists. With this method, it is not necessary to pre-drill the decking boards, saving you time and money.
MOSO® Bamboo Thermo Decking Boards are 6ft long and are packaged in three-piece bundles, which weigh about 40lbs, making them easy to handle. Each bundle covers 18 lineal feet of deck (approximately 9 square feet). Thermo’s incredible dimensional stability and rigidity allow it to seam off-joist with no issues, using structural tongue and groove end-match boards. Now you can estimate your deck based on square footage because the board length doesn’t matter.
Don’t hesitate to get in touch if you have any questions. Our MOSO® Bamboo experts are happy to help.
