Abstract
A linear bamboo tape containing a series of adhesively connected bamboo sections wherein each section has a predetermined width and thickness. The tapes are made by splitting cut and dried bamboo culms to obtain bamboo sections, sizing the bamboo sections to the desired width and thickness, adhesively connecting the treated sections, and applying a binder having excellent holding properties. The bamboo tape is used to make cylindrical containers or load-bearing structures by treating the tape with a resin and applying the treated tape to a surface of a cylinder to form a strong, lightweight, inexpensive cylinder. A cosmetic surface can be applied to the formed cylinder. The binder/bamboo tape can also be applied to the outer surface of cylindrical forms and treated with polymers to form pipes and tubes.
