Compostboard

About us

Compostboard is an innovative and fully biobased material made from agricultural by-products.
Whenever crops are harvested, plant fibers such as those from pepper plants, hemp, and flax become available. These fibers are then bonded using an adhesive that is safe for indoor air quality, the processor, and the end user. Compostboard regulates humidity, is VOC-free, and is rain-compostable, nourishing future generations of plants and people through the soil. This material is ideal for interior applications, such as wall and furniture finishes.
When an interior is renovated or updated, Compostboard can be recycled and returned to the fields, transforming human use of materials from toxic to fertile. It addresses several environmental issues, including:
• Carbon Sequestration: Capturing and storing CO2.
• Waste Reduction: Decreasing the annual volume of waste sent to incinerators.
• Supporting Farmers: Centralizing farmers in the production of food and fiber.
• Soil Enrichment: Providing rain-compostable material that enhances soil health at the end of its lifecycle.
• Preventing Land Degradation: Increasing organic matter content in the soil.
Compostboard is a circular material that can be safely produced as long as we cultivate food. It creates a breathable interior with consistent humidity and a clean, toxin-free environment during use and processing.
