Production & Sourcing

Bamboo is a versatile and sustainable plant that has been used for centuries in various cultures for production and sourcing. This plant belongs to the grass family and is famous for its tall stalks, woody texture, and leafy foliage. In this article, we will explore the various applications and functionality of bamboo, along with its flavor, texture, color, nutritional value, moisture and binding abilities, aromatics, balance and contrast, cultural and regional influence, and any special dietary considerations. Bamboo is primarily grown in Asia, with China being the leading producer of this plant. Other major bamboo-producing countries include India, Vietnam, and Indonesia. Bamboo is grown in a variety of climates, ranging from tropical to temperate regions. It grows extremely fast, sometimes up to 91 cm (36 inches) in a day, making it a highly sustainable resource. Bamboo is usually harvested between three to five years of age when its stalks reach their full height. This allows the plant to develop strong and sturdy culms (stems) that can be used for various applications. The harvesting process is done manually, where the stalks are cut at the base and then processed into different products.
