  • Patent number: 7794508
    Abstract: A method for producing colored gluelam bamboo articles includes splitting bamboo stalks into strips and removing the tabasheer and bamboo rind from the strips. The strips are steamed and then dyed under a high-pressure. The dyed bamboo strips are then dried and planed into a finish plane form. The dyed and finished plane strips are then laminated together with an adhesive to form bamboo timber boards or panels of various sizes. The colored gluelam bamboo timber articles produced exhibit a beautiful, natural dyed appearance in which the natural texture of the bamboo is brought forth and fully preserved after the dyeing, and gluelam bamboo timber products produced from the boards or panels will not warp in the presence of high humidity. The method results in low equipment and manufacturing costs and a high production efficiency.
