Slats

A semi-finished material for creating unique surfaces. Discover the potential of industrial hemp in the production of flooring, wall panels and decorative finishing elements.

Strumber Hemp slats are a semi-finished product made from hemp timber, designed for further processing and use as a decorative layer in finished products. They offer an alternative to conventional wood-based materials, opening up new possibilities for manufacturers of panels, interior furnishings and finishing materials.

The slats are not a finished product ready for direct installation. They must be bonded to a suitable substrate and their surface must be properly finished and protected.

Hemp Timber – A New Material for the Interior Design Industry

Industrial hemp is an annual plant with potential that extends far beyond traditional applications. Strumber Hemp timber makes it possible to use a plant-based raw material to create modern decorative materials and industrial components.

The slats provide a basis for developing proprietary products and collections. They can be used as a decorative layer in flooring and wall panels, as well as in other interior finishing elements where a hemp-based surface can add distinctive character.

This solution is primarily intended for manufacturers, designers and processors seeking new material options and ways to differentiate their products.

Applications of Strumber Hemp Slats

Flooring Panels

The slats can serve as a decorative layer in flooring panels. Once bonded to a suitable substrate and properly surface-finished, they can become part of a finished flooring product, provided that the resulting construction meets the relevant technical requirements for its intended application.

Wall Panels and Decorative Cladding

Hemp timber can be used to create wall panels, cladding and decorative interior surfaces. This is an option for manufacturers developing collections of finishing materials using alternative plant-based raw materials.

Furniture Fronts and Built-In Furniture

The slats can be used as a decorative layer for furniture fronts, wardrobes, shelving units and built-in cabinetry. When properly bonded to a substrate and surface-finished, they can become a component in bespoke furniture designs.

Interior Design and Furnishing Elements

Potential applications include decorative cladding, door elements, built-in features and other components where a thin layer of hemp-based material can be incorporated.

Bespoke Projects and New Product Collections

The slats’ format gives manufacturers the opportunity to explore new product constructions, designs and applications. The final use should take into account the material’s properties and the technical requirements of the finished product.

How to Prepare the Slats for Use

Strumber Hemp slats are a semi-finished product that requires further processing before being incorporated into a finished item.

  • Selecting the substrate – Choose a substrate suitable for the intended application and the construction of the finished product.
  • Bonding the slats – Permanently bond the material to the substrate using an adhesive appropriate for the materials involved and the intended service conditions.
  • Surface protection and finishing – Finish and protect the slat surface using a suitable lacquer, oil or oil-wax finish.
  • Adapting to the final product – Ensure that the finished assembly meets the durability, resistance and safety requirements relevant to its intended use.

The bonding method and surface-finishing system should be evaluated and validated by the manufacturer of the finished product.
