Prickly pear cactus veneer – 0000000257

Mediterranean nature that not only creates surfaces but transforms your spaces into sensory environments. The prickly pear cactus, sourced from the Salento region in Italy, is a fast-growing plant that can rapidly reproduce itself. The raw material for this innovative material comes from the necessary thinning of the plant and is essentially a byproduct. Through an eco-friendly process, fibers are extracted from the branches and, after drying, take on a wood-like consistency. Carefully crafted, the pieces of fiber are selected and arranged, creating a kind of collage from the leaves. They are then treated with clear eco-resin, aiming to preserve the material, enhance its mechanical strength, and ensure water resistance. No surface is identical afterward. A product for lovers of unique Mediterranean flair.
