Making a material difference for people and the planet
Over 7 billion carbon sequestering trees are harvested globally each year to be mixed with toxic binders to provide for the manufacturing of our homes, buildings and the floors, furniture and surfaces throughout.
Traditional building materials rely on a 70-year-old “dry” process technology that utilizes virgin resources and toxic, non-recyclable binders (e.g., formaldehyde, MDI).
Deforestation, chemical exposure, CO2 emissions, and a costly, unsustainable “take-make-dispose” cycle.
We unlock the inherent value in diverse, often uncontested, clean, post-harvest agricultural and urban waste resources (paper, wheat straw, soy straw, corn stalk, hemp, etc.).
The proprietary “wet” process technology delivers 100% bio-based, non-toxic, and fully recyclable high-performance panels that are exempt from deforestation mandates and tightening formaldehyde regulations.
A truly circular solution that reduces waste, protects forests, eliminates harmful chemicals, and creates economic value from discarded or spent resources.
While our raw material is 100% recyclable and bio-based, our long-term vision is to ensure that every ECOR product is fully recyclable at the end of life. We’re actively working toward that goal through collaborations with sustainability leaders like Stora Enso, exploring innovative lignin-based glues that will help eliminate petrochemical adhesives, bringing us closer to true product circularity without compromising performance.
To further this mission, we also seek to collaborate with coating manufacturers who share our commitment to sustainability. Our goal is not only to apply non-toxic, recyclable coatings to ECOR Panels, but also to inspire a new generation of sustainable coating solutions across the industry.
ECOR’s products are designed with the end of their useful life as top priority. ECOR-1 has 20-year useful life, with recycling and residual value built in.
Reliable, sustainable, cost competitive supply chain solutions are the key to gaining the competitive edge in the new era of the Circular Economy.
No other commercially available technology can offer a more impactful and scalable carbon reduction solution. Our ultimate goal is to be the catalyst for change with real solutions, in a world running out of time. A big part of our mission is about people. ECOR’s decentralized production model can provide a positive impact on the environment and economy of the communities where our facilities are located. In addition, meeting specific ESG performance objectives is part of every ECOR Global employee’s incentive plan.
