ECOVON
THE GREEN WAY TO BUILD
We're revolutionising material production by using coconut husk and sugarcane to create a fully sustainable, naturally flame retardant, anti-fungal, binder-free alternative to wood.
WHAT WE DO
Stronger & more durable than commercial wood-based panels
Significantly less expensive than traditional wood
100% natural and compostable, unlike any other commercial wood
Natural lignin content substitutes traditional carcinogenic binders
ABOUT
African forests are being cut down at an alarming rate of over 4 million hectares per year; twice the world's average. It's clear that immediate action is required. As citizens of Ghana, one of the world's largest producers of coconut, we became the change we wanted to see.
WHY WE DO IT
Decrease deforestation and eliminate the use of harmful glues
Put Ghana's 750,000 yearly tonnes of coconut waste to use
Provide a source of income for farmers in developing countries
Develop a carbon neutral form of producing a wood alternative
We have developed a unique technique to achieve a wood alternative as natural, efficient and inexpensive as ours.
This is how we do it:
HOW WE DO IT
STEP 1
Harvest coconut
STEP 2
Separate husk
STEP 3
Mill & dry
STEP 4
Hot-press into final board
