Xanita's revolutionary new board manufacturing process combines recycled cardboard boxes and sugar cane bagasse with VOC-Free organic starch-based adhesives, resulting in kraft-based boards that weigh as little as one-seventh the weight of fomaldehyde-based MDF & particleboard.
Lightweight rigid X-Board "Print" or X-Board "Kraft" is sandwiched both sides with white (industrial inkjet receptive) or brown, kraft engineered cardboard liners. This grade of board is designed for temporary and semi-permanent applications which allows the board to be repulped back into paper post-use, rather than being dumped as landfill, otherwise known as cradle-to-cradle design, rather than cradle-to-grave.
For applications requiring a tougher, long-lasting surface, traditional substrates including steel, aluminium, fibreglass, plywood, or decorative laminated E-Zero MDF or particleboard are pressed by our manufacturing partners, direct to the kraft core.
X-Board "Plus", as this board is known, can be direct edge-banded by joiners and furniture manufacturers with no extra investment in lightweight board processing equipment.
Typical applications include floating shelves, benchtops, architectural doors, operable walls, workstations, credenzas, formwork, entertainment units & more.
