On January 28th, reporters learned from the China Forestry Industry Association, China Consumer Association, China Bamboo Industry Association, and China Forest Products Industry Association, which jointly released the 'China Bamboo Flooring Consumer White Paper' to the public, that bamboo flooring is an independently innovated product of our country. After more than a decade of development, it has reached an international leading level in terms of production technology and product quality. Currently, the annual production and sales volume of bamboo flooring in China has reached over 30 million cubic meters, accounting for 10% of the total sales volume of wooden flooring in the country, of which 60% is exported to developed countries and regions such as Europe, America, and Japan. International renowned venues like the Clinton Library in the USA, NIKE stadiums in Europe, and Madrid Airport in Spain all use bamboo flooring made in China.

Zhang Senlin, president of the China Forest Products Industry Association, said in an interview with reporters that my country started the research and development and production of bamboo flooring in the late 1980 s and early 1990 s. Since about 90% of the bamboo forests with the best performance and the highest utilization value in the world's bamboo resources are distributed in the southern provinces of my country, bamboo flooring is also a distinctive environmentally friendly decorative product in the global market. It has strong stability and good elasticity., High strength, long service life and other characteristics. In order to improve the competitiveness of China's bamboo flooring in the international market, China issued and implemented the bamboo flooring industry standard in 2000, and formally implemented the bamboo flooring national standard on October 15, 2006, so that the quality level of the whole industry continues to improve. On this basis, some well-developed production companies continue to introduce advanced foreign equipment, pursue innovation in production technology and their own technology research and development, and the quality management system is becoming more and more perfect. The products they produce have mature technology, reasonable structure, and diverse varieties. The quality has reached the standard requirements of Europe, America, Japan and other countries and regions, especially the environmental protection requirements of these developed countries, resulting in a continuous increase in product sales.

Although my country's bamboo flooring export market is gratifying, due to the large number of production enterprises in the industry, low output, weak overall strength, and lack of influential brands in the international market, most of the products currently exported are OEM. In addition, the non-standard competition of enterprises in the export market has led to a downward trend in the price of export products per cubic meter, which has restricted the sound development of the industry to a considerable extent.

It is reported that the China Forestry Industry Association and other departments issued the "China Bamboo Flooring Consumption White Paper". On the one hand, it is to increase the publicity of the correct understanding, selection, use and maintenance of bamboo flooring in the domestic market. Hangzhou Dazhuang Flooring Co., Ltd., Shanghai More than 20 well-known companies and their products represented by Shengda Bamboo Industry Co., Ltd. are introduced to consumers to make environmental protection, high quality,

Bamboo flooring with good cost performance has become the first choice for consumers. Through the increase of internal sales volume, the development pace of the survival of the fittest in the industry will be accelerated; on the other hand, it is to guide enterprises to make efforts to become bigger and stronger, not to fight price war, especially in the export market, improving the added value of products and brand awareness is the ultimate way out, so as to better open up the international market.
