Product description
ECOR’s flagship product is a high-performance composite board made entirely from natural cellulose fibers sourced from agricultural residues, recycled paper, and other clean waste streams. The innovative process involves a patented, chemical-free pressing system that binds the fibers using heat, pressure, and water, without any synthetic glues or resins.
The result is a durable, lightweight, and fully recyclable panel suitable for multiple applications such as interior walls, furniture, shelving, ceilings, flooring, and exhibition design. ECOR Panels can be cut, laminated, or shaped into various forms, enabling versatile use across the design, construction, and manufacturing industries.
Each ECOR Panel diverts waste from landfill or incineration and provides a sustainable alternative to wood-based boards. They can also be re-processed at the end of life into new panels, completing a true material loop. This makes ECOR’s product one of the most circular and environmentally advanced board materials available today.
