ASIA - BOURBON WHISKEY BARRELS FOR FLOORING (06.05.05)
It is reported that Itochu Kenzai Corporation has formed a new flooring business by linking companies in three countries. The companies will processes waste bourbon whisky barrels in China and export the flooring to Japan. Apparently some 500,000 square metres of flooring can be produced annually. Bourbon barrels are made of tight grain white oak lumber. They are used for only seven to eight years by law and it has been estimated that there are some one million barrels disposed of every year out of which 800,000 are reused for other liquor and 200,000 are used for planters. Itochu Kenzai, it is reported, plans to buy 80,000 barrels a year for processing in China.

Hur nu dom golven kan se ut. Kan vara tricksigt att få vanligt golvmaterial att ligga plant, men whiskytunnor?
De kanske maskinhyvlar tunna lameller som de limmar på något annat material? Låter som ett tragiskt öde för en whiskytunna.... Speciellt sådana som skulle kunna användas på nytt eftersom dert verkar som om att de skall använda new bourbonbarrels.
Undrar vem som kom på det här?
