Design and Development of bamboo composites-based materials
We develop sustainable and enviro-friendly composites for civil, aviation, marine and household application using natural fibers
Bamboo based Products Manufacturing
Bamboo can be grown in 3 to 5 years and its can be cultivated like other crops. National bamboo Misson, it has been observed that it can be grown any where in India with little effort. In spite of that Govt. of India is encouraging to grow bamboo as crops. Bamboo absorbs more carbon-dioxide as compared to other plants. Mass level demand can be fulfilled by using bamboo as natural reinforcing material. The waste of bamboo can be recycled and can be used to make many other products like bamboo powder, coal, agarbatti sticks etc. Bamboo fibers have more strength than other natural fibers. The Govt. of India prohibited specific woods so It has the capacity to replace wooden products in civil and household industry.
Advantages over Iron Sheet
Production of iron sheets is highly energy consuming process
These sheets become hot in summer and cold in winter
In rainy/moist environment low life due to rusting
Advantages over Saal or Teek Wood
Saal or Teak wood trees take 30 years.
Indian government has banned on cutting trees
In rainy/moist environment low life due to water swelling
Advantages over Glass Fiber Sheet
Production of glass fiber sheets is highly energy consuming process
These sheets pose risk of landfill after use
Toxic and health hazard while production
Advantages of Bamboo Products
Bamboo grows at very fast; it takes only 4 to 5 years for maturing
It absorbs CO2 during growth
It can be used in rainy and moist environment
Very simple tooling/machine required for production
Applications
Work Plan For prototype development
