MOSO applies a special, heat-treatment process at 392°F (200°C) to provide MOSO® Bamboo X-treme® the highest durability class possible in the appropriate European standard and increases the hardness and stability. A unique feature of MOSO® Bamboo X-treme® is the end-matched connection: this can only be done with very stable materials and enables connection of an unlimited number of boards in the length. The special symmetrical shape of the sides offers the possibility to choose between either the reeded or the smooth surface, and allows for quick installation with MOSO® fasteners. Bamboo X-treme® will weather over time to a silver patina.
