How is it made
Over 80% of Agriboard’s panels consist of straw left over after the grain has been harvested. Much of this straw was burned in the past adding to air pollution. Agriboard’s straw core uses NO adhesive binders. The patented panel forming process is based on high pressure and high temperature technologies. Safe and effective borax compounds are added to eliminate mold and insects.
Technical specifications
7-7/8” thick panels have up to a dynamic thermal R-value of R-25.4
