Manufacturing of particle board from sorghum (country maize) stalks

There is high demand for sustainable building materials in non-structural panels. Projections and industry feedback suggest this demand will display strong growth. Non-structural building panels are used in construction, furniture manufacturing, and decorating, making them resilient to difficulties in any single market. ChloroFill board is a fiberboard made with Sorghum stalks – an agricultural waste product – and a formaldehyde-free binder. Sorghum's 48% cellulose content makes it pliable and strong, and comparable to wood, which is 50% cellulose. When Sorghum is used in a fiberboard the result is a panel that is stronger, more durable, provides better insulation, and has a lower environmental impact than traditional particle board.

Uses

• ChloroFill board can be used in many of the same non-structural applications as particle board, fiberboard, and even some grades of oriented strand board (OSB) and plywood. More applications for ChloroFill board can be seen below.

ChloroFill is environmentally friendly:

• Zero volatile organic compounds (VOCs)
• Reduced agricultural waste
• Reduced carbon emission from agricultural burning
• Naturally resists pests and erosion
• Reduced impact on forests
• Sorghum is rapidly renewable
• Socially responsible - provides income for subsistence farmers.
