Description

Bring sustainability and innovation together with our Sustainable Ply sheets, now finished with an eco-conscious Kava Surfaces layer. These sheets feature our lightweight, high-strength core technology combined with a stylish Kava coating — crafted from repurposed coffee grounds, organic waste fibres, bio-binders, and eco-friendly finishes.

Key Features:

  • Eco-Innovative Core: A 6mm BC flute corrugated cardboard core, bonded with eco-friendly PVA glue, and reinforced with compressed cardboard edges for structural integrity.
  • Circular Coffee-Waste Finish: The surface is coated with a 1–2mm Kava layer, crafted from repurposed coffee grounds, organic waste fibres, bio-binders, and eco-conscious finishes — transforming waste into a refined, durable surface.
  • Sustainable Build: The combination of recycled paper, responsible plywood, and coffee-waste coating offers a new standard for sustainable, low-impact materials.
  • Lightweight Strength: Up to 50% lighter than conventional MDF or plywood, without compromising on toughness and stability.
