Cement Bonded Particle Board (CBPB) is manufactured mainly from the familiar and proven raw materials -
Cement and Wood Particles - to which a very small quantity of additives is added to 'mineralize' the wood particles.
The mineralization process enables the wood particles to resist biological attack, erosion and decay. It is, in effect,
a transformation of an organic material into a state where it is resistant to the otherwise destructive influences of moisture, rot,
vermin, fungi, fire, insects, chemicals, weathering, etc.
In summary the principal attributes of CBPB are:
CBPB is suitable for exterior and interior use; it is asbestos free; it contains no hazardous volatiles and its process dust is regarded as non-aggressive.
CBPB is a versatile building material. Since its introduction in the late 1960's, it has been successfully used in a
variety of climatic conditions where its unique characteristics make it an ideal building material for a variety of exterior and interior applications.
CBPB's outstanding weather resistant properties make it particularly suitable as an external building material.
Typical applications are:
Standard dimensions and density of CBPB
| Length | 2400 up to 3600 mm / 8' - 12' |
|---|---|
| Width | 1200 / 1250 mm / 4' |
| Thickness | 4 - 40 mm |
| Density | ca. 1250 kg/m3 |
| Modulus of Rupture | >9 N/mm2 (CEN Norm) |
Other dimensions and densities are possible as well.
Standard production capacities are based on 120, 150 en 200 m³/day, based on 3-shift production.
Optionally the CBPB plant can be expanded to also include the production of EltoBoard in a so called combined CBPB-EltoBoard plant.
Although our engineering team has been involved in several (turn-key) CBPB Plants and or upgrading of existing CBPB Plants,
Eltomation no longer offers such turn-key CBPB Plants. Modernisation of existing CBPB Plants is still part of our scope of supply.
In view of product flexibility and advanced board properties, we offer the new (WWCB)/EltoBoard Plant as a more economic and
technically better and more versatile alternative to the CBPB technology.
