Denimolite is an engineered composite material derived from repurposed denim waste, including manufacturing off-cuts, discarded garments, and non-recyclable stretch denim. By incorporating these materials, Denimolite transforms textile waste into a durable material suitable for interior designers, home renovators, commercial designers, and architects.

Composition
Denimolite integrates waste textiles with bio-based resins, including GreenPoxy, Infu Green, and IB2 infusion Bio Resin, which contain 38–50% plant-based ingredients. This approach reduces reliance on conventional petrochemical-based resins while maintaining material strength and durability.

Material Sources and Manufacturing
Denimolite is composed of three primary sources of denim waste:

• Manufacturing off-cuts from garment production
• Unwanted garments that would otherwise be sent to landfill
• Stretch denim, which is challenging to recycle through conventional methods

All denim waste is cleaned and processed before being combined with the plant-based resin system, resulting in a durable material with distinctive textural characteristics. The final composite maintains the visual identity of denim while offering enhanced structural properties.

Applications
Denimolite is suitable for interior applications in both residential and commercial settings. It can be used for:

• Wall cladding and decorative panels
• Furniture surfaces and tabletops
• Bespoke installations and artistic applications

The material can be finished to a soft, textile-like texture or polished to a high-gloss surface using natural sealants such as beeswax.

Workability and Machining
Denimolite is highly machinable and can be:

• Milled, turned, drilled, and cut using standard mechanical saws
• Sanded and polished to achieve customised finishes
• Material Performance

Denimolite undergoes mechanical testing to ensure its performance. Key properties include:

• Modulus of Elasticity: 3955 ± 932 MPa
• Tensile Strength (Yield): 27.9 ± 3.2 MPa
• Tensile Strength (Break): 25.9 ± 5.4 MPa
• Elongation at Break: 0.8 ± 0.1%
• Shore D Hardness: 85HD

These properties indicate that Denimolite is a robust and reliable alternative to traditional composite materials in interior design and furnishing. It provides an alternative to wood, plastics, and conventional composites, offering a high-performance, sustainable material with unique visual and tactile qualities.
