An
Environmentally Friendly Building Material
Rumber® is
a truly remarkable product. This is a military grade material.
And we mean that literally. We are currently selling to the U.S.
Army for it's grenade training ranges. Previously they had a plywood
wall along the trench to keep shrapnel from flying back
at the soldiers. Each day they had to rebuild 1000' of wall. They've
been throwing grenades at a Rumber wall for over a year now without
failure. This is TOUGH STUFF.
Basically it is available
in two forms:
- Extruded lumber profiles
of S4S and T&G in 2x4, 2x6 and 2x8. Colors are black, gray
and brown. Smooth and high traction (buffed) surfaces.
- Sheet goods: Thickness
of 1/8" to 1/2"; a small variety of textures. Generally
4'x8' sheets but custom runs up to 77" wide and 144"
long can be made.
