Expertise Meets Dedication
Nine years ago, Steve and Kim embarked on a journey fuelled by the vision of integrating sustainability into homes and businesses across New Zealand.
Discovering bamboo was a revelation. “We fell in love with the bamboo products when we first saw them. We loved the sustainability story of bamboo and could see the potential for the future,” Steve recalls.
Their journey from passionate pioneers to leaders in the bamboo industry is a story of dedication, innovation, and the pursuit of excellence.
Witness the Impact of Bamboo
Plantation Bamboo’s partnership with MOSO Bamboo, a world leader in bamboo innovation, was a pivotal step in ensuring access to premium quality, sustainably sourced bamboo products.

What our customers are saying...
We discovered Plantation Bamboo and the more that we researched it the more that we realised that it was the product that we had been searching for.
We love the fact that it is very stable and does not warp and bleed like a lot of hardwoods. It was easy to work with, very quick and easy to install, and we think that the secret clip system makes the finish far superior to other decks.
We were so impressed with it that when we decided to build a deck on the ground level it was an easy choice to once again use Plantation Bamboo.
Now that our decks have silvered off, we think that they look fantastic.
Eveliene was fantastic to work with, is an excellent communicator and is very efficient.
We are extremely happy with our Plantation Bamboo decking and would highly recommend it to anyone. Family and friends that have seen it have been impressed with the product and are looking to use it for their own new decks.
Product density and consistency allowed for good mitering and detailing. Very happy with the finished project and would certainly use again and recommend.
Building a house of your dream is not a walk in the park.However if you do your home work and have the right people around you it's a great experience.
Picking the right materials is critical.
My wife and myself decided we would go for the mid century Look.Timber ceilings.
appealed to us.We remember seeing a bamboo floor that we thought looked great.The pre finished color was perfect.
Yes we had made decision.Instead of using it on the floor we used it on the ceiling.After consulting with supplier and our builders we nailed it.Excuse the pun.
The clip system worked well and the builders made a butifull job.
We were so impressed with the bamboo product that we used it for all our decks plus some of our internal joinery.
We have been in our new home for a year now and the plantation bamboo looks
stunning .
Ingrid was exceptionally helpful and very prompt with all of my queries. She was also knowledgeable when it came to finishing and getting the the right product to treat the bamboo with.
I have made a nice feature screen in the entry of my house, and created various shelves out of the leftover material.
Very happy with the look.
Thanks Team
The installation leaflet is well explained and they sent us an email with how to care for the flooring in the long run. So far it is really easy to clean.
Product dispatch quick.
Happy to do business
with them again
