BEWI is excited to announce the launch of a ‘groundbreaking innovation’ into its Jackoboard construction board range – Jackoboard Lignin, says the company.
It’s available in a range of 18 colours carefully chosen to coordinate with the latest trends in tiles, including stone and wood-effect shades, allowing you to colour match to the tile, or to use a contrasting colour as desired.
This new generation of tileable construction boards contains renewable raw materials and is produced in an environmentally friendly way, thanks to the utilisation of green electricity. This makes Jackoboard Lignin boards a responsible choice for environmentally conscious construction projects, says the company.
The core of the construction board contains the biopolymer lignin, which is a byproduct of the paper industry. In addition to lignin, the construction board core contains only recycled material. The product provides improved sustainability, with a reduced carbon footprint and an impressive 60% reduction in CO2 emissions compared to conventional XPS.’
Says the company: ‘This new launch aligns with the emissions reduction targets in the building and construction industry, as well as with BEWI’s own ambitions to become circular, including increasing the use of recycled and non-fossil materials within the company’s product offering.
‘It’s important to stress that Lignin retains the excellent product properties of the well-known purple construction boards from Jackoboard. Like all Jackoboard construction boards, Lignin can be used to form an ideal base for tiling. The surfaces of the Jackoboard system provide an extremely strong bond, which can be used on any substrate. The boards are waterproof, thermally insulating, lightweight and very strong, making them ideal for waterproof bathroom and wetroom projects.’
