Bio-Based Material Commercial Door Components Footprint

Looking at core materials for ASSA ABLOY 707 doors. Materials tested include: cellulose board, hemp fiber, polyethylene foam, and hybrid materials. Materials must meet or exceed properties of currently used expanded polystyrene. Tests include sound transmission loss, heat transfer, stiffness, 3 point bend test (modulus), and density. AADG has a company wide mission to reduce carbon footprint by 28% by 2030 and become net zero by 2050.

Our team collaborated with Mechanical Engineering 7 on this project.
