The wood-coated floors are engineered products, usually produced with veneers glued over plywood or reconstituted wood panels, which have wide acceptance in the Brazilian market. In this work the objective was to develop a floor composed of bamboo and MDF, with the use of thermo-mechanical treatment, as well as to determine the physical and mechanical properties when compared to commercial laminate flooring. The produced bamboo-MDF floors samples were divided in one part subjected to thermo-mechanical post-treatment (temperature of 160 oC and pressure of 1 MPa for 15 min) and the other without treatment. The results showed that bamboo can be combined with MDF for flooring production. The experimental bamboo-MDF floor was similar or superior to the commercial laminate floor in almost all the studied properties, except resistance to humidity, as shown by the results of absorption and swelling tests. The bamboo-MDF floor was superior to the commercial product in the main requirements of Janka hardness and abrasion resistance.
