Basics

  • A product of the company Kirei USA, constructed from the left-over, post-harvest stalks of The Sorghum
  • Is similar to Fiber Composite Reinforced Pipes or Fiber Composite Reinforced Bars except it uses a woven sheet covered in a thin epoxy layer
  • Wouldn't be hard to replicate, simply make a thick sheet of woven fiber (Natural or Semi Synthetic makes the most sense, but Synthetic could be used if needed), and either coat it in an Epoxy, Resin, or use a 3D Printer To Coat One Side with filament (With a small overhang), Flip it (Somehow make it recognize the sheet as a build plate? touch sensor mesh scan perhaaps?) and print over the other side
  • With Clear Epoxy/Resin it is Aesthetically Appealing
  • With Filament it becomes a thin, lightweight, strong board useful for various applications (Surface Covering, Mild Structual, etc
