PaperShell grains
A polished or finely milled tool surface is typically recommended for optimal results. However, custom textures and grain patterns can also be designed to achieve unique aesthetics.
Art meets innovation
It’s not just about materials; it’s about creating value that resonates. We collaborate with our clients to explore and enhance tactility, haptic, pattern, grain, graphic and all types of finish possibilities, ensuring that our solutions maximize value for our clients and PaperShell as a whole. Our designers and engineering can empower your products and we merge art and science to give your projects an edge.
Our composites have a unique look and feel. It can be used for visual class A surfaces, portraying a sensation and narrative of something new, technical and ecological at the same time.
Natural elegance
Our clients often ask about colours but when understanding the materials unique identity decides to expose its sincerity just like it one would with high value woods, leathers or other natural materials. At the same time they appreciate the level of detail and technical look that can be achieved, which is very uncommon for natural materials. For outdoor applications PaperShell ages beautifully like wood, transforming from brown towards a grey nuance.
Consultation regarding environmental permit for PaperShell’s expanded operations in Tibro
PaperShell AB (“PaperShell”) develops and produces moulded, fibre-based biomaterials. The company intends to apply for a permit pursuant to Chapter 9 of the Swedish Environmental Code for increased production at the company’s facility located within the properties Sekretären 4 (existing) and Sekretären 5 (additional) in Tibro.
Production will be expanded to a maximum of 17,500 m³ of finished product per year and will include, among other things, impregnation processes and the production of biochar. The operations are subject to a permit requirement and are also covered by the Industrial Emissions Ordinance (2013:250). Where necessary, the permit application will also include requests for the required exemptions.
Because the operations may be assumed to result in significant environmental impact, PaperShell invites the public and other stakeholders to participate in a scoping consultation in accordance with Chapter 6 of the Swedish Environmental Code. The purpose is to inform and obtain views on the location, scope and environmental effects of the operations, as well as on the content of the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) that will be prepared.
The main environmental effects are assessed to relate to noise, transport, energy consumption, emissions to air, accident risks, and impacts on natural values in connection with the development of the site.
A consultation document describing the plans is available here and can also be requested via samrad@geosyntec.com.
