“BalanceBoard” is the new generation material from engineered wood producer Pfleiderer Holzwerkstoffe GmbH. Up to 35 % of the wood content of each panel is replaced by biomass granules made from rapid-growing annually harvested plants. This makes the material lighter and therefore more manageable to transport than traditional chipboard. “BalanceBoard” is most often used in interior construction for furniture and fixtures, in retail and trade fair constructions, as well as in hotel and ship interiors. It is ideal for all applications for which environmentally sustainable, healthy, reduced-weight chipboard panels are required.
With regard to its technical performance, “BalanceBoard” behaves just like traditional engineered wood products, fulfilling the requirements and properties set out in DIN EN 312. NEW: The light, environmentally friendly material is available, as part of Pfleiderer’s new combined product range in the form of “DecoBoard Balance” in thicknesses of 16 / 18 / 19 / 22 / 25 / 28 / 38 mm, and in the form of an HPL flat bonded element, “Duropal Balance flat bonded element”, with a total thickness of 20.6 mm.
