A new year sees new trends rising and others holding steady. If you want bamboo Flooring that’s on-trend in 2023 you may find your floors might not be made of bamboo at all! Luxury vinyl plank continues to be popular for 2023 for its easy care and durability. In addition, some old patterns are making a comeback while plank sizes grow, and more colors than ever before are available.
Here is a quick look at the 5 top Bamboo Flooring trends for 2023.
Luxury Vinyl Plank
Luxury vinyl plank (LVP) flooring looks just like bamboo flooring but it’s not. It is much more durable than regular vinyl flooring and with advances in manufacturing technology, it looks just like bamboo!
This flooring offers 100% waterproof resistance, so feel free to install it on the floors in wet areas like bathrooms and home pet wash stations. Mudrooms get a major upgrade with the addition of LVP bamboo floors.
Wide Planks
Historically, homes were built with wood floors with Wide Planks. Colonial homes had flooring cut from old-growth forests that naturally resulted in wide planks. However, over time, these wide planks became much more expensive. Naturally, planks became narrower to control costs.
However, with the rising popularity of fast-growing bamboo and advances in the manufacturing of engineered strand bamboo flooring, wide planks became affordable again.
Today, planks from 7 to 5 inches grace homes and light industrial offices. Wider planks require fewer seams. They make small areas look larger and a wider plank allows more of the natural beauty of the grain in the flooring to shine through.
Don’t expect wide planks to exit the scene in 2023.
