Sustainability 

altPlus designs and manufactures healthy, performance products for industry and home, from the most rapidly renewable, carbon storing materials on earth – bamboo. Using modern technologies and working with the best partners in industry, altPlus brings engineered bamboo composite products to the global market. altPlus products have the ability to offset as much or more carbon than timber products while being rapidly renewable, with all the healthy, natural, features we look for in timber products.When altPlus engineered bamboo composites are used in durable goods, it is possible their life cycle can last 105 years. First life, 50 years in a building, second life, 50 years in a building, and finally, third life, down-cycled into a lower grade construction material of 5 years life cycle. Over the 105 year time frame, the rapidly renewable bamboo in the forest will have replaced itself over 20 times. Compared to a woody forest that may only experience regrowth through planting, 2 – 4 times in that same period of time. As the world looks for new solutions for a sustainable future, altPlus engineered bamboo composites are an example of what that future looks like.
