Wheatboard

It is made of wheat straw, a by-product of harvesting wheat.


Wheat straw boards are durable and lightweight. Yet, they have porous structure, and they are susceptible to moisture.


The production process of wheat boards generally has a lower carbon footprint compared to traditional plastic or even some wood. What is more, unlike plywood, particle board or MDF, it contains no formaldehyde adhesives, and thus is biodegradable. It is also recyclable.
