olderEnviro Board Affordable Green Panels
Enviro Board is not only a product but a technology. As you can see from the video below, Enviro Board is able to process up to a ton of straw at one time and convert it into a panel product to be used in construction. The process can convert many varieties of waste fibers, such as wheat, rice, rye, barley, oat straws, flax, cane, elephant grass, etc., into low-cost building panels. The award-winning product is non-toxic; resistant to fire, termites, mold, and mildew; earthquake and hurricane stable; and qualifies for LEED points. And it can be used in the construction of virtually any type of structure in various applications.

Do you know of any residential projects that have used this product? Very cool technology and once again investment idea. After your EcoRock article I have been researching alternative building materials. This is another great one. You’re off to a good 08!

Great find! I love how this product uses waste materials and leverages the straw's own lignin to bind the board together. No added adhesives! Wonderful stuff.
