Star Bamboo featured on Lianhe Zaobao
Some good news to share with everyone: Star Bamboo was featured in yesterday’s issue of Singapore’s largest-circulating Chinese language newspaper, Lianhe Zaobao (联合早报）.
We were part of a feature on Singapore companies doing eco-friendly products. Besides our bamboo flooring, there were also spectacle frames made from recycled plastic, clothes spun from bamboo fibres, and shoes produced using recycled rubber.
Here’s the article below:
In it, I discussed the benefits of using bamboo flooring, and the motivations behind the founding of the Star Bamboo group back in 2001.
The information was accurately portrayed. Thanks Wei, for taking the effort to double-check the facts with me.
The only grouse I had was that I wasn’t aware I was going to be photographed that day! It came as a total surprise when the photographer turned up together with the journalist. Thankfully I just had an haircut, though I should learn to smile more for the camera.
Hopefully this article will help to promote greater awareness of eco-friendly alternatives made by our very own Singapore companies.
Do give us your support, your actions can help make this world a better place!
