Solution details

Rice husks are an agricultural by-product produced during the husking process of brown rice, also known as rice. It has the same chemical composition as wood, but is high in silica, making it resistant to mold and insects. It has low thermal conductivity and strong insulation. It should not be forgotten that in order to create a natural and healthy environment, rice husks are an excellent sound insulation. Configure your application system by using simple products. The depowdered rice husks do not contain binding additives or water. It comes in a comfortable bag so that it can be placed on site through a free-laying system or a mechanized blow pump that uses compressed air.
