The industry environment for bamboo flooring and lines
• Market sales: Affected by the slowdown in economic growth and the sluggish real estate market, the sales volume of bamboo flooring in China in 2024 will be 20 million square meters, a decrease of 5 million square meters from the previous year, a year-on-year decline of 20%, far exceeding the overall decline of the flooring industry. But the export volume has increased, with an export volume of 82900 cubic meters in 2024, a year-on-year increase of 13.16%, and an export value of 113 million US dollars, a year-on-year increase of 8.90%.
Policy environment: In the context of the national "dual carbon" target, the bamboo industry is receiving attention. In 2023, the National Development and Reform Commission released the "Three Year Action Plan to Accelerate the Development of 'Replacing Plastic with Bamboo'". In 2025, the National Forestry and Grassland Administration and the National Development and Reform Commission jointly issued the "List of Main Products of 'Replacing Plastic with Bamboo' (2025 Edition)" to provide policy support for the development of bamboo flooring.
Industry chain situation: Upstream bamboo resources are abundant, and China's bamboo resources, area, and stock volume all rank first in the world. However, the overall bamboo production price index shows a "V" trend from 2021 to 2024, with a year-on-year increase of 1.9% in the first quarter of 2025 and a slight increase in costs. There are numerous midstream production enterprises with low industry concentration and low barriers to entry. The downstream is mainly used in the construction industry and is greatly influenced by the real estate market.
Industry trend: The industry reshuffle is accelerating, and companies with technological and cost advantages will stand out. Enterprises will increase technological innovation and develop new products, such as bamboo unfolding orthogonal composite materials. At the same time, enterprises will accelerate their overseas market layout and build a global market pattern.
Industry environment of bamboo thread
Market demand: With the promotion of the "bamboo instead of plastic" policy and consumers' preference for environmentally friendly materials, the market demand for bamboo lines is on the rise. Bamboo strips have the advantages of natural environmental protection, no cracking, no deformation, wear resistance, and pressure resistance, and are gradually being widely used in indoor decoration and other fields.
Policy impact: Many regions have introduced policies related to "replacing plastic with bamboo", such as Anhui, Hunan, Zhejiang and other provinces issuing relevant plans in 2024, and Sichuan and Guizhou also releasing bamboo industry development plans in 2023. These policies will promote the development of the bamboo line industry.
