  Quick Guide: Everything You Need to Know About Bamboo Painting Panels
Being an artist is being open to new experiences that benefit and improve the quality of the artwork. This is why experimenting with new materials and mediums may be fun and fascinating, as you get to find new details that will impact your creative journey. Like many artists who paint on wood painting panels, you are probably familiar with birch, oak, walnut and other common materials, but we would like to present to you our new product and its unique material - bamboo.

SUMMARY

Bamboo painting panels started to become a #1 choice of many creative figures for the past half a decade due to many benefits that come with its usage. It has an ideal rigid surface, allowing for all paint media to be applied on. The surface of the panel is hand sanded, preventing any warps that the paint can cause.

Hanging System
Frameless
Environmentally Friendly
Climate Sustainability
Bamboo painting panels have grooved hangers on all four sides, which makes it possible for the artwork to be displayed both horizontally and vertically. Once you found a perfect place for display and drilled in a screw for the hanging system, your artwork will be ready to place on the wall. Do not want to spend your energy looking for a perfect frame? Why not go with an elegant, frameless finish which will allow the artwork to shine with no distractions and would save you money on framing services. Due to a simple grooved hangers system, anyone with minimum experience would be able to display the final piece. The most relevant advantage of using bamboo panels in comparison to other wood painting panels is the environmental impact. Bamboo is one of the most renewable resources in the world. It is one of the fastest growing plants and it does not die after harvesting, meaning there is no deforestation. If your business is environmentally friendly, such sustainable product choice will only increase your sales and appreciation for our beautiful planet. Due to the fact that bamboo is most commonly grown in tropical zones, it is highly sustained in a humid climate, as it does not swell unlike hardwood. It keeps its sturdy form even when it has contact with water and the surface does not warp when different mediums are applied on.


 Birch panels VS. Bamboo Panels
In order to understand bamboo panels on a better level, let's compare them to a common birch wood-painting panel through the most important factors.

Weight: Birch wood painting panels are commonly much lighter than bamboo panels, making them more comfortable to transport and work on.

Thickness: Birch panels have3/4" and 1.5" deep depth, while bamboo panels come in 1/2" depth.

Layout: Both of the panels have a beautiful front layer, suitable for all mediums. Note, that for both of the panels it is highly recommended to prime a surface prior to painting or any other applications.

Price: Like we mentioned before, due to the large amount of "perks", bamboo panels tend to last longer and have a higher cost.

Heat and Water Resistance: Birch wood painting panels are not heat and water resistant as bamboo panels, which allows them to serve its purpose for a longer period of time.

Choice: Due to the fact that bamboo panels are not as common and birch panels have been on the market longer, they are still a first voice of many artists around the globe.
