Lightweight Fiber Compression Mattress / Item Number M2927F-12K

A mat made from used clothing. This is a recycled material made from 100% textile waste, developed with public funding aimed at improving the fiber recycling rate.

The new material developed by heating and press-forming fiber waste is being used not only as an alternative to wood and plastic but also as a wall greening material, garnering further expectations from various fields. In July 2013, it received the "Eco Mark" certification. Lightweight At 12 kg for a 3×6 size with a thickness of 12 mm, it is very lightweight and easy to carry. Durable and resistant to cracking It has greater strength than resin boards. Due to its intertwined fiber structure, it is less likely to crack and fragments are less likely to scatter. Non-slip It is less slippery compared to steel plates and resin boards. Additionally, its flexibility prevents damage to the road surface.

basic information

■Current Status of Recycling Textile Waste Textile waste, such as old clothes and fabric discarded from households, exceeds 2 million tons annually. However, the recycling applications are very limited, including rags (for machine wiping), exported used clothing, and fiber reclamation (returning cotton for reuse), resulting in a recycling rate of only about 10%. It is difficult to expect a significant increase in this rate in the future. Nevertheless, due to the rising environmental awareness, the amount collected is on the rise, thanks to the establishment of collection organizations and the initiation of administrative collection to promote textile recycling. It is deemed necessary to develop new applications to further advance textile recycling in the future. ■Features of Lightweight Fiber Compression Panels (Benefits and Effects) 1. Lightweight The substrate for wall greening has a thickness of 10mm, and the planting section has a thickness of 30mm, with a weight of approximately 9.6 kg per square meter. In the case of rooftop greening, the substrate thickness is 5mm, and the planting section is 30mm, also weighing 9.6 kg per square meter. Compared to wall greening or rooftop greening using soil, it is significantly lighter, eliminating the need for reinforcement work on structures such as factories and barns when installing.
