Bamboo Furniture, Bamboo Stairs, and Bamboo Moulding may contribute to LEED credits

Ecological bamboo furniture, bamboo stairs and bamboo moldings may be LEED credit eligible. Bamboo is a rapidly renewable environmentally friendly material, defined by its harvest cycle of less than ten years. As such, bamboo interiors may contribute toward gaining LEED points, especially Commercial interiors. Typically the category that bamboo interiors can contribute towards is 1 point – MR Credit 6 Rapidly Renewable Materials.

JMX Bamboo Moulding Featured on Builder's Top 50 Products

JMX International's bamboo mouldings are one of Builder Magazine's top 50 products of 2008, according to the Builder website.

JMX's bamboo mouldings, typically used as transitional pieces and aesthetic compliments to a bamboo floor, reflect the growing trend of the popularity of ecologically friendly building products.

Jim Miller, JMX CEO, sited the company's service as a major reason for why JMX's bamboo mouldings stand out from the crowd. "We go out of our way to take care of our customers. Our sales associates are helpful and knowledgeable. If they don't know the answer to a question, they will tell you that and then go and find it. Additionally, our website is user-friendly and we generally ship within the next business day from our climate-controlled warehouse in Sarasota, where we keep everything in stock."

Builder sited a growing number of energy efficient and sustainable products on its list. The results are compiled by popularity metrics that it monitors on company websites, including "how many visitors its Web site is getting, how long visitors are staying, and how many pages they’ve clicked through."

JMX's bamboo mouldings are found at its specialty store, JmxBamboo.com. They have many ecological benefits and are a beautiful, exotic alternative to hardwoods.

Despite the national slowdown in construction during the recession, Miller says that JMX has continued to sell its bamboo moulding. He says, "Our sales are roughly the same as they were in 2008, which isn't too bad considering the overall state of the housing market. We expect to be busy in 2010. We're making improvements in our packaging and shipping and will also be adding some new products, including bamboo picture frame moulding and a new line of bamboo furniture that is made in America. We're bullish on bamboo."
