Autodesk Singapore had the official opening of their new Fusionopolis office on 4 Nov.
They are the world-renowned makers of the AutoCAD software.
Fusionopolis Tower One – home of Autodesk Singapore
It’s a spacious 5,125 sqm office area, and I’m happy to say that we installed bamboo flooring in their Level 10 office and pantry area.
Autodesk is a USA-based company and their HQ specifically requested to use eco-friendly products. What better choice than Star Bamboo – a Green Label certified product?
We actually completed the project back in August. Very pleased with the results, check them out below:
Lovely view of the Buona Vista area, and even lovelier bamboo flooring
We did this project using our Natural Vertical solid bamboo flooring.
It comes pre-finished with 6 layers of polyurethane coating for better scratch and stain resistance – perfect for the office.

Nanyang Optical recently opened Singapore’s first ever eco-friendly eyewear store.
They go beyond selling eyewear made from recycled materials, and set up an entire system they call the Full Circle Recycling System. It is a cradle-to-cradle system, very impressive.
Star Bamboo is proud to be a small part of this cool endeavour. This is a match made in heaven.
After all, what better material to use in an eco-store than our eco-friendly bamboo flooring?
So we got a call asking for our bamboo flooring planks. But there’s a twist to it: they will be used as wall panels instead.
It’s not the first time bamboo flooring planks have been used on the walls. Regular visitors to the Esplanade might recall the previous souvenir shop near the taxi stand has this design feature.
We’ve even used it on the ceiling in various condominium apartments before.
But I really like the way it’s been installed in the Nanyang Optical eco-stores:

The first eco-store is at Parkway Parade, and the remaining Nanyang Optical outlets will be progressively converted to this new design concept as well.
So very soon, you’ll be able to see Star Bamboo products all across the island.
And do consider Nanyang Optical if you’re ever in the market for eco-friendly eyewear.

A quick announcement:
Our application to IRAS has just been approved, Star Bamboo (S) Pte Ltd will be GST-registered effective 17 Nov 2008.
From this date onwards, we have to charge and account for 7% GST on all our business transactions.
For customers who confirm their orders before 17 Nov, we will not be charging GST even if the delivery/installation date is after this.
So if you have been wanting to order our bamboo flooring, this is the best time to do it.
Also, just to apologise for the recent lack of updates. Besides the office relocation, I have also spent last week in Guangxi, China as part of a Singapore business delegation sourcing for possible business and investment opportunities. Taken loads of photos and I have lots of fascinating stories to share.
But all that will have to wait till after I visit a Korean customer in Pusan this week.
We have a team of bamboo flooring experts in Singapore to handle all your queries, so call them at +65-65659217 today.
