Our simple solution

Producing ecologically can be done by going back to the basics: using renewable natural resources, making sure the product can be re-used properly and is biodegradable after use.

Lolab has been extensively researching and prototyping all sorts of paper/wood sandwich constructions and panels. 

Our invention is straightforward. Using natural characteristics of pulp-fibers and clay. Combining these resources and their properties results in lightweight and rigid fire retardant/-proof boards. 

One of the fundamental principles of fire prevention is to utilize as little material as feasible. Less mass implies a lower caloric value, which leads to reduced heat generation, smoke and fire.

Therefore, developing a super-lightweight panel is a logical choice. Impregnating the fibers of these panels with our clay-based mixture produces a surprisingly effective fireproof product.

A sustainable innovation driven by simplicity.
