The innovative CONBAM Joining Technique guarantees efficient and aesthetic connections for constructions with bamboo poles. It’s possible to realize modern structures with the fast renewable resource bamboo. The CONBAM Joining Technique is creating a conical ending of the bamboo pole – indicating the force progression. The applicability of any bolted fastening allows moreover several possibilities to connect, a fast mounting and demounting. High class workmanship as well as the combination with stainless steel is generating a unique product.

The jury was not only impressed by the combination of bamboo and sophisticated technology but also by the fact that, thanks to the Conbam joining technique, the popular bamboo material is used to create a loadbearing, mountable system.
