Panel Fabrication

Each face/wall of a cube consists of 2 panels, each 4ftX8ft. A panel is designed as a wall, half-wall, door or window panel.

The panels consist of two outer skins sandwiching a rigid Polyurethane Foam (PUF). Bamboo boards are one of the materials used as a skin. Multiple bamboo mats are compressed and infused with resin to produce boards of varying thickness.

The panels are strong enough to be used without structural members for supports. They are strong and sustainable.
