Kirei & Leed – Build Green
Kirei products are manufactured with rapidly renewable and recycled content, as well as low- or no-added-urea-formaldehyde adhesives, and can help projects gain LEED™ Green Building credit in the following areas:

Environmental Benefits
Kirei Board reduces forest clear-cutting, air pollution and landfill use. The sorghum stalks used in the manufacture of Kirei Board are a rapidly renewable resource left after the edible portion of the plant is harvested.

Reduced Waste
Until now, these stalks have been discarded or burned, adding to landfill waste and pollution. Kirei Board helps reduce this waste and ease deforestation by substituting for wood.

Zero VOC
In addition, Kirei Board is made using a non-toxic adhesive that does not emit toxic formaldehyde.

Kirei Board Adhesive
KIREI board is manufactured using KR Bond, a water-based polymer-isocyanate adhesive. Formaldehyde-free KR Bond does not contribute harmful Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) to the indoor atmosphere. Testing according to Japanese Government standard JIS A 6922-2003 resulted in 0.0 mg/L formaldehyde emission.

Fabrication Guidelines
Kirei Board is machinable using standard fabricating techniques applicable for wood-based products.

Kirei Wheatboard – Clean, Green MDF
Kirei Wheatboard is the answer to formaldehyde-emitting wood MDF products. With working characteristics meeting and often surpassing those of commercially available MDF, plus renewable source materials and non-toxic adhesives, Kirei Wheatboard gives you a clean slate to build what your mind designs. Projects and products receive LEED™ credit for rapidly renewable material, recycled content, and indoor air quality.
