Produced in Bali using locally sourced Dendrocalamus asper, Indobamboo’s Laminate Bamboo is an engineered bamboo product designed for structural and architectural applications. Strips of mature bamboo are processed, laminated, and pressed under controlled conditions to form dense, dimensionally stable members comparable in strength and stiffness to conventional glulam timber. The material combines bamboo’s rapid renewability — maturing in three to five years — with long service life and design versatility. Manufactured close to source, it supports regional supply chains and reduces transport emissions. The process utilises low-VOC adhesives and offcuts are repurposed as smaller building components or biofuel feedstock, minimising waste.

When specified in structural systems, Laminate Bamboo demonstrates a regenerative alternative to carbon-intensive construction materials, with potential for net-negative embodied carbon performance through sequestration during bamboo growth and localised fabrication.

BaleBio Pavilion

Rising above Mertasari Beach in the Sanur district of Denpasar, Bali’s capital city, the BaleBio Pavilion marks a milestone in regenerative building. Designed by Cave Urban and developed through Bauhaus Earth’s ReBuilt initiative in collaboration with the Bamboo Village Trust and Kota Kita, the 84-square-metre structure brings together material...
