These next-generation engineered wood products are strong, lightweight, and eco-friendly.
February 12, 2021, Brunswick, Georgia – Kerfkore announced today that it is launching a new product as part of its ultra-lightweight line: Worklite® PHC Hexkore.
Since the 1980s, the Kerfkore Company has been known for its innovations in lightweight and bendable engineered wood products. Architects have used their products to provide architectural interest in many different settings including university campuses, office spaces, healthcare settings, and hotels to name a few.
Worklite® PHC Hexkore is the latest product in Kerfkore’s lightweight product line and can reduce weight by up to 80% over traditional materials.
“Our customers are looking for ultra-lightweight materials because they open up more design possibilities. The great thing about these products is that they have an incredibly high strength-to-weight ratio,” said Dave Quackenbush, President of Kerfkore.
Worklite® PHC Hexkore, with its distinctive hexagon cell structure, is 100% recyclable and biodegradable.
As with all of Kerfkore’s lightweight products, Worklite® PHC Hexkore can be installed using conventional fabrication methods and can be customized with decorative surfacing veneers, paint, or metal finishes.
