Steel & Bamboo Balustrade by House of Bamboo in Randwick, NSW.

House of Bamboo gave Australian Fencing Awards some key information on their Steel & Bamboo Balustrade project.

Challenges involved in the project

• The developer for this block of unit liked the look of our Noosa battens but needed it to be stronger to be used as a balustrade for the balconies.
• We therefore developed a steel reinforce bamboo batten to provide the desired look and strength.
• We had to work with several types of steel and glues to ensure the perfect combination and waited 2 years to see how the product would evolve before adding it to our range of products.

Products used on the project

• Sorrento Balustrade, part of our SeaChange Series, made with engineered bamboo battens reinforced with a steel interior.

Outcome of the project

• The outcome of the project is our Sorrento screen, an extremely strong and safe product that retains the warm and natural look of bamboo.

This project by House of Bamboo is a finalist in the Australian FENCING Awards 2021.
