How the bamboo is laid out prior to pressing. Different arrangements give a different board face.
Plain-pressed
Imagine a ruler laid flat on a table. This is our bamboo slat. Lay multiple bamboo slats next to each other and subject to a pressing machine. Hey presto, you have Plain-Pressed! This results in the individual bamboo slat and node details being clearly visible. A ‘plainer’ look, compared to the side-pressed.
Side-pressed
Using the same ruler analogy, imagine all the slats on their side. The bamboo is then pressed to create a more detailed face to the bamboo plyboard.
The debate of side-pressed vs plain-pressed bamboo board ultimately comes down to personal preference on the look of the board.
The standard sheet we sell is 8ft x 4ft.
