a: Fusø can be cut with a regular circular saw and in general be treated like a regular wooden product. Be aware that heat from high friction may remelt the plastic slightly. Therefore, be sure to run your tools at lower speeds and go slowly. If the surface gets scratched or whenever new cuts are made, we recommend sanding the surface with grit 120, 180, 320, and finally 1000 for the best result. For a shinier look, you can continue with finer grit sandpaper.

a: To be certain that the surface treatment is not damaged unnecessarily, do not take the panel out of its original packaging prior to the moment you need to install it. If you do need to check the quality of the panels or have concerns over the finish, be sure to handle it with care if you need to re-package the material. The wax finish is very sturdy, but ultimately not completely resistant to scratching.

a: For the best results, use a frame construction, which supports the entire tabletop. We do not recommend the use of a frame that only provides support in single points. We recommend that Fusø overhang its frame by more than 15cm in either direction. The tabletop can be supported by an I-profile shaped frame, where all corners have support, as well as down the middle, however, be mindful that the best support is a square shape where the whole tabletop is supported equally.

a: For the best results pre-drill the material and use screws with a wide thread.

a: All our partners must follow and sign our Code of Conduct. Furthermore, we are members at Foreningen for Byggeriets Samfundsansvar (The Association for Construction Industry Social Responsibility) and we have signed their charter.

a: The material is heat pressed and partly melts, to fuse it together. No glue or adhesive is added in the process.

a: The product is produced in Denmark and made with waste also collected in Denmark

a: The material can be treated like any other sheet material and if you no longer need a tabletop, Fusø can be cut up for e.g., shelves or any other application you might find suitable. a:gain cannot take any risk in how the material is treated/handled in future life cycles, however, we are always happy to spar and support. For all other purposes, the tabletop can be recycled as hard plastic.

a: For larger projects, we are happy to make an agreement to take back material at its end of life or at a reasonable set date.

a: Our standard size is 79cm x 179cm x 2cm. For more information on sizing see the ‘Dimensions’ section on this page. The ‘raw’ sheet material comes out of manufacture in 80cm x 180cm x 2cm and can be purchased as such. However, we recommend purchasing with edge and surface treatment, which results in our standard offered size and a higher quality finish.

a: A skilled craftsman can join the material with a sealant combined with a tongue and groove connection. On our end, we recommend making a clear connection between two edges using a spacer material, e.g., wood.

a: Not currently. The colour is determined by the input and with this manufacturing technique we are not able to dye the material. However, please reach out to a:gain if larger volumes with other colours are needed for your project. The DraughMaster kegs will become transparent going forward, and we are looking at developing colour options.

a: We can customise the product at an extra cost; please reach out to us with your specific request.

a: We are happy to provide an LCA of the material. If you are interested in working with us on any other certification you may find relevant to us, please reach out to us.

a: We are currently in progressing dialogue with Green Building Council Denmark but cannot as of today mention anything concrete in this forum. Please contact us for more information.

a: Our products all adhere to Danish standards and should be fine for implementation in most other EU countries. As Fusø is a tabletop made of 100% food-safe plastic, it should adhere to regulations for most regular tabletop applications. It is not approved for use in industrial kitchens. If you would like us to advise you on your specific case, please reach out to us.

a: Any waste source we manage, we research thoroughly and seek to trace back as far as we can. Carlsberg ensures that our kegs are clean, free of toxic materials, etc., before they hand them over to us, from there we have a complete awareness of the production line from kegs to your tabletop.

a: We are currently in dialogue with the team behind Materialepas and plan on Fusø being accessible on their platform in the near future.

a: We do not currently have a generic text for download; however, you are welcome to copy any text from this product page. We estimate that the text is ready end October 2022.

a: We do not currently have BIM objects of our products; however, we are happy to help how we can, such as providing .3DM, .DXF, .DWG files etc.

a: Not currently.

a: Not currently.

a: We are happy to come to your office or building site, share our experiences with the product, and answer technical questions to the best of our ability. We are also happy to arrange tours of our office and showroom. For more information, please contact us!

a: We have a standard poster, which we can edit to your specific situation. The poster describes the journey from waste to the final product implemented in your project. We are also happy to spar with you or your graphic team if you wish to create something yourselves or which is specified to your graphical identity.

a: Depending on the scale of the project we can offer knowledge sharing, sparring and technical support for your project. For small projects we can only refer to the information on the website, however, we naturally answer any questions you might have. Please reach out with your specific project here.

a: For inquiries about Fusø or other a:gain products, please reach out here. Through Daarbak Design you can purchase Fusø in combination with frames for café, bar, and workstation tables.

a: While B2C is not currently our focus it is possible to purchase Fusø directly through us. However, we recommend you go through our partner Cut Lab CPH.

a: For orders of < 10 units, expect 2 - 3 working weeks delivery time. For orders of 10 – 25, expect 4 - 6 working weeks delivery time. For orders of > 25, expect 6 - 8 working weeks delivery time.

a: Yes, however, depending on the destination, this will have an impact on delivery cost. Please reach out with your specific request.

a: Yes, however, because of high demand or if you wish to place a large order, our production might still require time to deliver. In this case, express delivery may have a negligible effect on delivery time. On smaller orders, this is usually not the case.

a: Not formally, however, delivery cost diminishes significantly for larger orders.

a: The regular 2-year warranty applies. We guarantee the quality of the product, however, encourage customers to see and experience the product prior to purchase, especially for larger orders. As the product is a waste-based product, tactility, finish, etc., it may not adhere to one’s regular expectation of a tabletop material. We are happy to provide samples and reference projects where the product can be seen.

a: Please reach out to us if you have any complaints.

If you are interested in e.g., a 1:1 mock-up of a product, we are happy to provide this at cost-price, if it is related to a larger sale. Reach out to us for your specific request.

a: If you would like to see the material up close, you can request a sample by reaching us here. Please note if it is urgent for your situation.

a: We do.

a: Absolutely, we are happy to help with any such integration. Please contact us for your specific request.

a: Reach out to us for a discussion.

a: Here.
