NF Board®

Outline of NF Board®

What is NF Board®
  • Recycled plastic board made from used plastics discharged by households.
  • We promote resource recycling by effectively utilizing used plastic as a substitute for virgin plastic.
  • Used NF Board® products are also collected after use and recycled again.

NF Board®production equipment
Economy
  • Excellent durability; greatly reduces total cost.
  • High abrasion resistance, virtually no surface deterioration.
Free workability
  • Same workability as virgin plastic boards is possible.
  • Can be cut, drilled and nailed like wood materials.
Easy handling
  • Same easy handling as virgin plastic boards.
  • Almost zero water absorption; no weight change due to rain, etc.
  • Dirt can be wiped off easily.
  • Excellent performance as embedded forms.
Excellent performance
  • High water/chemical resistance; virtually corrosion free.
  • High soundproof/heat insulation performance; suitable for walls.
Secondary recycling possible
Collected used boards can be recycled again.
(Collection is limited to club association members)
