A mono material from asparagus peels

Asparagus peels are due to their long fibers extremely tough and tear-resistant. With the suitable processing, a wood-like material can be produced, which consists entirely of asparagus peels, as they do not require any binder due to their own bonding properties.The long fibers allow a high degree of flexibility and stability. In spite of its robustness, the material can be easily dissolved and returned to its natural cycle.
