X-Board Kraft is being used in 1001 ways by creative design professionals.
For an eco-chic look and when you need to recycled your structures within 5 years, X-Board Kraft is a highly versatile, lightweight kraft composite board which offers designers and manufacturers an eco-alternative to MDF, particle board and non-renewable, polymer-based sheeting, typically used for short-term displays and structures.
X-Board’s crush-resistant corrugated kraft core is manufactured from post-consumer kraft and bagasse waste. The core material is sandwiched between laminated top and bottom layers of 350gsm kraft liner, creating a high strength-to-weight ratio, fully repulpable display board, which can be disposed of in industrial paper recycling bins.
For production runs, X-Board Kraft is best cut using a CNC router fitted with both oscillating knife and bevel-cut drag knife. For simple straight-cutting of low volume sheeting, (eg. hobby, DIY or set-building use) a heavy-duty Stanley-type knife, panel saw, jigsaw or vertical foam trimming machine may be used.
If one needs to hide the boards exposed kraft edges, for straight edges, X-Board can be double-mitre cut and folded back on itself, or one can apply a PVC C-channel edging with hot-melt glue gun, which can be removed before recycling the board after its useful life. This is supplied in 50m or 100m rolls in a variety of colours.
