Products

Dybø
Acoustic Board

Dybø PET felt is produced from used plastic bottles collected in Europe. It consists of 75% recycled PET, and there is no waste in the production, as all remnants are recycled and reintegrated into the production process.

Hjælmø
End Grain Brick Flooring

Hjælmø end grain flooring is recycled from surplus material and offcuts accumulated during the production of pine slats and window frames. The wood is sorted out due to knots, which do not affect the durability and strength when used as brick flooring.
