Abstract: A large lightweight molded coffin comprises a large pulp molded outer shell lined with a reinforcing spacer material such as single faced Re-board®, a honeycomb structure or a molded spacer material conforming to and adhering to said shell and an inner shell made of molded pulp or a paper based material. A method for manufacturing such a lightweight coffin involves pressing slurried pulp between a first male mold half covered with elastomeric material and a second female mold half, to form the molded pulp shell, and gluing the reinforcing spacer material to the interior of said outer molded pulp shell and the inner shell.

Abstract: A large lightweight 3-D shaped molded pulp material, for example a container, comprising a large pulp molded outer shell lined with a reinforcing core spacer material, conforming to and adhering to said shell, and an inner shell made of molded pulp or a flexible paper based material. A method for manufacturing such a lightweight material involves pressing slurried pulp between a first male mold half covered with elastomeric material and a second female mold half, to form the molded pulp outer shell, and gluing the reinforcing core spacer material to the interior of said molded pulp shell and gluing the inner shell to said spacer material.

Abstract: In order to prolong the usage of wood one needs to prevent the growth of rot and fungi. The most common substances used today are not environmentally friendly and they need to be replaced by more environmentally friendly options. Water glass or sodium silicate has been known for a long time having properties which give the wood resistance to rot and fungi and in addition also fire retardant properties. The present invention discloses a method for treatment of wood to improve the flame retardant properties and also the resistance to rot, fungus, mold and insects of a wooden material. The wood treatment method of the invention comprises the steps of providing a wooden material and providing water based formulation which is stable in room temperature or in temperatures ranging from 15-35° C.
