Green Blade Sustainable Veneer by FIBandCO for 3form Europe

Here's a philosophical question with relevance for our brave new green world: if a tree falls in Martinique, does anybody hear it? If manufacturer 3form Europe and sustainable pioneers FIBandCO are on the scene, the answer is a resounding yes. The latter has developed Green Blade Veneer, an easy-to-source, pollutant-free, and eminently sustainable material deriving from Martinique's plentiful banana trees, and the former has incorporated this revolutionary product as an interlayer in their equally green Varia Ecoresin Panels.

Strictly speaking, banana trees are not trees at all but actually rapidly growing grasses. Their gestation cycle, so to speak, is roughly nine months, at which point their fruit matures, they "die" back to bulbs, and begin the whole cycle again, leaving a veritable cornucopia of discarded stems in the process.

FIBandCo collects this rigid, grassy, durable material and-in a low energy process requiring neither fossil fuels nor chemicals nor water-transforms it into Green Blade veneer, a "rapidly renewable resource that can be made into custom designed panels for doors, walls, partitions, ceiling elements, or other custom architectural elements."

3form offers Green Blade as a Varia Ecoresin interlayer in four different colors (Taiga, Silvam, Copse, and Glade), each of which are naturally occurring as organic variations within the stems of the banana leaf-a subtle and earthy palette ranging from a pale tawny to a rich brown to an elegant silvery-gray.
