Ekoa® in an R&D Application

While our core focus is on developing products for automobiles, furniture, architecture and design, and commercial interiors, we strive to take our products even further. 

One of the most difficult product application challenges is developing marine-grade products - which must weather some of nature’s toughest challenges. Components must be weatherproof, able to withstand corrosion, lightweight, moldable, and UV resistant. Very few products are able to meet the maritime usage standards - and even fewer still are sustainable options. 

Our R&D team loves this kind of challenge, so when a high-end marine craft customer came to Lingrove, we got excited. Together we built a beautiful marine vessel component to meet all of the technical challenges of maritime applications, while (cost competitively) delivering a gorgeous, sustainable product made from plants.

That’s what we do with our weekends in the workshop!
