Recycled and 100% repulpable fibre board for environmentally friendly interior design.

X-Board™ is a new generation composite fibre board with exceptional high strength-to-weight ratio. The closed-cell honeycomb core, made from recycled kraft papers and organic adhesives, is sandwiched between two layers of inkreceptive recycled white paper. The result is an environmentally friendly alternative to resin-based MDF, particle board, PVC and foamed core boards. It’s just the thing for a market that’s increasingly aware of the importance of sustainability.

The incredibly strong, lightweight panel (up to 90 ton/m2 core crush resistance), can be directly printed on and cut, routed and shaped to virtually any design. X-Board is amazingly versatile in that it can be large-format, direct inkjet or screen printed and laminated with both decorative and printed poster papers. Panels can be mitre-cut, then folded or curved, or cut into shapes and inter-locking pieces, offering users an endless array of sustainable design opportunities.

X-Board™ lasts up to three years in indoor environments. And unlike other substrates that end up as toxic landfill, X-Board™ is 100% repulpable. That’s more good news for your environment.

	Here's a picture of the V-Notch knife tool for X-Board. For example, when cutting 10mm X-Board, one V-notches 9mm deep leaving the thick paper-liner of X-Board to act as a hinge. The board can then be folded to 90 degrees. The mitre-join is simply glued in place using hot-melt glue adhesive.

	Another useful tip is to cut two 1mm deep cuts through the top surface of the board. Then apply a heat-gun with just enough heat to gently activate the hot-meltadhesive holding the paper liner to one side of the board. Remove this section of paper to expose the closed-cell honeycomb core.

	Now shape the board as required. Cutting parallel to the flute direction renders easier folds.

	Here's a double v-notch cut and a top paper layer cut and bend in one panel.

	This panel has been hand-cut with Stanley knife, 2mm deep into the top surface layer.

	Once cut, as above, boards can be curved into shape. Designers are encouraged to experiment with different depth cuts without removing the paper liner to achieve different shapes.

	This example has been doublev-notch cut, allowing the board tofold-back on itself to expose a printable front edge for shelving applications.
