Resource Fiber LLC identified that bamboo fiber could be integrated with synthetic materials to create stronger, lighter weight and “greener” products. In this Phase I work, Resource Fiber collaborated with the Manufacturing Demonstration Facility of Oak Ridge National Laboratory and the University of Tennessee (MDF). The goal of the collaboration was to conduct proof of concept studies on bamboo fibers with thermoset and thermoplastic resins with a view to create commercial products.
