  1. MaterialNCell Natural Fibre reinforced ThermoplasticsNCell consists of a polypropylene (PP) or polyethylene (PE) matrix reinforced with up to 40% natural cellulosic microfibres. NCell compounds have mechanical properties that are able to replace glass-reinforced thermoplastics. NCell also offers increased performance from other commercially available biocomposites, such as those made from hemp, flax, wheat straw, and wood.
  2. MaterialTibetan Cactus Fibres CarpetThis exclusive material, locally manufactured, is made from Tibetan Cactus Fibres. This labour intensive, hand knotted carpet, can be a combination of loop piles and velour textile with silk and wool. Due to the hygroscopic material characteristics, the material is temperature selfregulating.
  3. MaterialBcomp TextileThe most viable structural fibres used in these architectural textiles typically derive from specifically grown textile plants and fruit trees. Natural fibres are subdivided into bast fibres (flax, hemp and kenaf) and leaf fibres (sisal, pineapples and henequen), grass fibres (miscanthus), straw fibres (corn and wheat), seed fibres (cotton and capok), wood fibres (pinewood) and fruit fibres (coconut).
  4. ArticleNew Design Approach Could Make Ultra-High-Performance Concrete More AffordableUltra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) is widely used in projects that demand exceptional strength and durability. Designers and engineers specify it for bridges, high-rise buildings and…
