Record-breaking compaction up to 1600 kg/m³

Block material for any shape

We have already milled half a crocodile out of PU block material, then painted and exposed it as a tactile exhibit with audio feedback to the hands of numerous visitors at trade fairs. Still flawless, crocodile “Wilhelmine” is a good example of the versatility of the material, with which we can produce any 3D shapes, sculptures, topography models or casting moulds.

All advantages at a glance:

  • densities from 80-1600kg/m³
  • different block sizes
  • high level of detail
  • CNC processing
  • sanding and painting for a perfect finish
  • ideal as negative mould for casting patterns and forming tools for deep drawing processes
  • durable

Trigon Art – House of Bavarian History Gravestone Steiglehner

Not transportable and yet so monumental that it gets a place in the House of Bavarian History Regensburg: The tomb of the last prince abbot of St. Emmeram, Coelestin II Steiglehner. Therefore, it was digitised by means of a 3D scan, reduced in size by 15% and then milled from PU block material.

Alicja Kwade

Boulder or spruce, the difference for successful processing lies in the material. The 3D data of the stones that Alicija Kwade transforms are milled from PU block material. A predictable, industrially produced material with a homogeneous density.The two-metre-high tree trunks, which as living material take years to dry out, are a completely different case.
