To develop blown woodfiber insulating material (EKOVILLA) to rigid thermal insulating panel form

Objective

Recycling, environmental aspect, ease of handling and rate of production are most important for construction industry to select materials to be used on construction material factories and construction sites. To develop wood fiber insulating material suitable to use easier opens a wide range of new solution. Research is required with the European SME partners and research institution into the parameters, which makes possible to get blown wooden fiber into the rigid form, which saves the insulating properties and into methods for its safe, easy and fast to handle in production and construction sites and enlarge the area of usage of existing wooden fiber products.
