Star Bamboo Singapore

Hi hope you have enjoyed the Chinese New Year festivities.

The building and construction industry here is still on an extended break, with many companies re-opening later this week, but I thought I’d kick off the Year of the Rat earlier.

Came across this fascinating article which pretty much confirms what we have been witnessing: green is most definitely in, and not just a passing fad.

Thanks very much, Mr Al Gore.

The green movement gathered steam in 2006, exploded into public consciousness in 2007, and will just keep growing in 2008.

So what’re the top 3 reasons for going green?

1. Save money, especially when oil and electricity prices are hitting record highs.
2. Creating a healthier home environment, by using chemical-free or low-emission products (like our zero-formaldehyde bamboo flooring).
3. Feel good about yourself, simply because you’re doing the right thing!

Interestingly, bamboo was mentioned no less than 4 times, be it bamboo flooring, chopping boards or window blinds.

Lots more helpful tips to get you started below, do check it out.
