Biz Trend: Bamboo Products
When skateboard-maker Sector 9 in San Diego decided to add a couple of bamboo skateboards to its product lineup, company managers thought they might appeal to a few environmentally conscious customers. But in less than two years, customer demand led the company to expand the line to four models.
Bamboo has more going for it than just being a fast-growing, easily renewable relative of grass. Bamboo is strong and has a tropical, exotic appearance that appeals to customers who are interested in the tiki-Hawaiian look or just seeking out something new.
Bamboo products–from kitchen cabinets to T-shirts–are finding an enthusiastic audience, entrepreneurs report. Just a decade or so after bamboo products, such as flooring, first began finding acceptance in the U.S. market, business owners say interest in bamboo has shot up fast.
