Expanded Cork Granules
is developed by ECOPAINT Corporation and is an ECO Product.
The Expanded Cork Granules is a by-product obtained during the Expanded Insulation Corkboard production.
The Expanded Insulation Corkboard is a 100% ecological and recyclable product, from a renewable raw material, as the cork oak bark extraction is part of their life cycle. On its production, only cork granules are used, which when subjected to a thermal process releases a resin (Suberin), which functions as a binder (natural).
BENEFITS
- Excellent thermo-acoustic performance
- Excellent mechanical strength
- Dimensional stability of the material
- High durability without loss of features
- Healthier natural product
- Comfort with healthy insulation allows energy savings
- Long term effectiveness
