How ENVPLAS® Board are Transforming the Industry

In the rapidly progressing landscape of the furniture industry, the choice of materials can make all the difference between an ordinary piece and an exceptional, long-lasting creation that can withstand the test of time. While traditional plywood has long been a staple in furniture making, it’s time to look at how ENVPLAS® Board can set a new standard by offering a host of unparalleled advantages for the furniture industry by merging sustainability, versatility and performance.

The Advantages of ENVPLAS® Board

total waterproof

ENVPLAS® Board which is made up of PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) material is waterproof due to the distinctive properties of PVC and the manufacturing process involved. PVC itself is hydrophobic and does not have polar bonds that attract water molecules, meaning that it naturally repels water. The high temperature and pressure involved in the manufacturing process helps fuse the PVC molecules tightly together, reducing the likelihood for water penetration.

ANTI-TERMITE

Termites primarily feed on cellulose, a natural component found in wood and other plant-based materials. As ENVPLAS® Board does not contain any wood composite, it is likely that termites will not have interest in these boards as a food source!

Also, termites are attracted to moist and damp environment. ENVPLAS® Board being total waterproof does not provide the ideal condition for termites to thrive.

FORMALDEHYDE-FREE

The manufacturing process of ENVPLAS® Board does not involve the use of formaldehyde-containing chemicals and adhesives, contributing to the boards’ formaldehyde-free nature. ENVPLAS® Board has also been lab tested to be free from formaldehyde, VOCs and harmful substances, ensuring safe usage and healthy environment for users.

MOLD & MILDEW RESISTANCE

Unlike porous material like wood which can trap moisture and promotes mold growth, ENVPLAS® Board have a non-porous surface. This smooth and impermeable surface discourages the accumulation of moisture, hence preventing conditions necessary for mold and mildew to grow.

EASY MAINTENANCE

Made from PVC material, ENVPLAS® Board are resistant to moisture, rot and decay; and can withstand exposure to elements without deteriorating. This durability reduces the need for frequent maintenance. ENVPLAS® Board furniture is easy to clean with simple soap and water to keep them looking clean and well-maintained.

In conclusion, choosing ENVPLAS® Board over traditional plywood for furniture offers a range of compelling advantages. The boards durability, resistance to moisture and pests and easy maintenance nature makes them a sustainable and long-lasting furniture material choice.

We at ENV are committed to the principles of environmental excellence and sustainable development as we believe a simple step forward means a
lot to our environment. Every piece of ENVPLAS® Board is made up from more than 70% recycled PVC material and can be fully recycled.
