BIOTEXTURE Straw bale builders: Reed mat wall systems

























I have had some questions concerning the aforesaid interior wall system lately.

Reed mats are small diameter bamboo which are wired together and come in rolls which are stapled to framing members and plastered for interior wall systems.


The overall benefits of using bamboo reed mats center around the low embodied energy, environmentally benign aspects, and the interior air quality benefits.
Prices are comparable to drywall.
