Description

Nowadays, the eco-friendly feature matters when constructing buildings. Keeping up with this trend, there appeared a lot of manufacturers producing non-flammable and lightweight boards, but this company is differentiated as it uses eco-friendly materials. Also, not only focusing on reducing emission of harmful chemical substances, it has developed various functions including features of incombustibleness, dehumidification, deodorization, etc. and several test reports verify the product's quality.



The company manufactures the products without heating method. Originally, those products not using heating method have the vulnerability of solidity, but the company has compensated the defect. Instead, it adopted drying method that keeps its inherent property of matter and makes the process relatively simplified. Environmental problems don't occur through the whole processes and the products are recyclable.



The products can be supplied to construction materials providers and interior design companies, and used for public facilities, commercial buildings and private houses. Since eco-friendly buildings will be constructed in the future continuously, the products have marketability. And when they are introduced to public facilities such as schools and public hospitals, they can be admitted as an eco-friendly building in compliance with fire safety standards.
