Wall-surfacing
 Gridcore®
A lightweight honeycomb panel manufactured using
100% recycled card and paper pulp. Not only is it manufactured at
low temperatures using recycled materials, its also completely biodegradable
which makes this material an ideal choice for low-impact interior
applications. 
 Environ®
A highly durable sheet material made from soybeans
and recycled newspaper. Available in a wide range of colours and thicknesses,
this material is already a popular choice amongst interior designers.
Frequently used as a surface material to cover units, tables and even
walls.
 Cork
Tile
A range of cork tiles available in differing
thicknesses and colours, although the natural coloration is by far
the most popular. Extremely lightweight and sustainably harvested
from a renewable source, cork is a great material for interior wall
surfacing. Some of the cork produced is impregnated with a resinous
binder to improve the durability of the material and this has an interesting
impact on the overall aesthetic.

Homasote®
Made from 100% recycled newspapers. This board
is lightweight, cheap and is available in a range of thicknesses.
Often seen as a material to make notice-board and pin-boards due to
its softness, however potential applications must surely run beyond
this.
 Isobord®
A biodegradable building board made from agricultural straw waste.
The straw waste is finely ground down, then reconstituted using a
low-toxicity binder.
 Jute/Phenolic
Composite
A tough and highly durable board produced by combining jute fibres
with a phenol based resin binder. Biocomposites such as this one provide
alternative ways of producing durable, high performance materials
whilst using as few non-renewables as possible. In other words, by
adding jute you use less phenolic resin. This material is widely used
within a range of furniture design applications.
 Newsprint
Board
Made from 100% recycled newspapers. This board is lightweight, cheap
and is available in a range of thicknesses. Often seen as a material
to make notice-board and pin-boards due to its softness, however potential
applications must surely run beyond this.
 QuikaBoard®
An ingenious lightweight honeycomb panel manufactured using recycled
card and paper pulp. Not only is it manufactured at low temperatures
using recycled materials, its also completely biodegradable which
makes this material an ideal choice for low-impact interior applications.
A range of laminates may also be specified to extend further the aesthetic
versatility of this material.
Rye
Grass Straw Board
A lightweight, biodegradable building board made from agricultural
rye grass straw waste. Rye grass has a high cellulose content an is
therefore unsuitable for winter livestock fodder. The high cellulose
levels do however make it perfect for heat bonding into boards.
Straw
Board
A lightweight, biodegradable building board made from agricultural
straw waste. The straw waste is pressed and exposed to heat, which
sweats out the cellulose and sugars from the straw to create a natural
binder.
 Duratext®
A surfacing material which can be used
in both exterior and interior applications.
Based on a fibre-cement compound which uses a proportion of recycled
fibres to manufacture. Available in a range of sizes, colours and
finishes. They also extrude cornice-work and other interior detailing.
 Terrazzo
A huge range of terrazzo made from reconstituted
stone, glass and a cementitous binder. Each piece is then milled to
give it a smooth polished surface. Much of the stone and glass used
in these terrazzo are reclaimed.
 Aluminium
Sheet
Marketed primarily as a material to create suspended or imitation
ceilings. The aluminium sheeting is completely recycled and can be
printed on to create a diversity of visual impressions. The sheet
metal can also be stamped, punched.
Moulded
Tiles
A range of tiles in a range of colours
and sizes, made from 100% recycled glass cullet. The glass recyclate
is ground to a fine Frit and then exposed to a combination of heat
and pressure to create these textured pieces. Various surface details
are available and customised patterns are a possibility.
Panels
These
panels (or 'bricks') are manufactured using 100% recycled glass. They
are perfectly clear which is unusual for a recycled glass as it usually
takes on a greenish tint following the second processing. The panels
come in a range of surface textures and patterns, each of which manipulate
the light in different ways.
Tiles
A wide range of tiles in a range of colours
and sizes, made from 100% recycled glass cullet. The glass recyclate
is ground to a fine Frit and then exposed to a combination of heat
and pressure to create these opaque, textured pieces.
