The Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) study conducted by ITECONS1, an independent entity, and in compliance with EN ISO 14040, EN ISO 14044, and EN 15804 standards, revealed that each square metre of Navicork FD01 material sequesters more CO₂ than it emits throughout the entire production process, from raw material extraction to factory output (“cradle-to-gate”). As the marine industry embraces greener practices, Navicork FD01 provides boat builders and owners with an impactful way to reduce their environmental footprint. Beyond its sustainable advantages, Navicork FD01 also delivers high-performance technical features, including thermal and acoustic insulation, anti-slip properties, a comfortable soft touch, and versatile design options.
