Material & Performance Requirements
Located outdoors and functioning as a load-bearing construct, the pavilion required bamboo capable of:
Following extensive material testing, ZHUART’s high-performance outdoor bamboo was selected as the material for the structure. Though only 3mm thick, the material is as hard as a blade.


Collaborative Approach
With tight deadlines and high performance benchmarks, the project owner, architects, and contractors personally visited ZHUART’s production facilities. They participated in on-site sample reviews, quality control, and final inspections to ensure every bamboo element met design intent and durability standards.
