Jorge Bonilla of Bambuksa: Sustainable Structures with Bamboo
Bambuksa is a company committed to spreading awareness and new ideas about the use of bamboo as a sustainable construction material. They aim to make bamboo more common and widely known to both the public and businesses. Why use bamboo? Not only is it natural and biodegradable, but bamboo is also incredibly strong, and depending on location, easy to find and plentiful. Though it grows faster than most trees, bamboo still maintains a wood-like appearance.
In this episode of The Understory Podcast, we speak with Jorge Bonilla about how Bambuksa aims to develop the bamboo market in local economies, starting with smaller farms and local construction businesses. By providing construction advice and design ideas, Bambuksa increases the adoption of bamboo in building structures while creating self-sustaining communities in South America.
