The EcoCocon straw wall system is redefining modern construction by combining natural materials with high-performance building standards. Designed to deliver healthy, comfortable, and energy-efficient living spaces, it offers a forward-thinking solution rooted in traditional, sustainable resources.
EcoCocon panels are made from 98% natural, renewable materials, ensuring minimal environmental impact while promoting excellent indoor air quality. Free from harmful emissions, the system is fully vapour permeable, allowing excess moisture to escape and reducing the risk of condensation, mould, and damp. Its airtight construction, combined with the absence of thermal bridges, eliminates draughts and helps maintain consistent internal temperatures throughout the year.
Straw, used in construction for centuries, forms the core of the system. Its natural cellular structure provides outstanding insulation, which is further enhanced by modern engineering and the addition of external Gutex wood fibre insulation. This combination makes achieving Passivhaus levels of performance more accessible than ever.
With over a decade of development, the system meets rigorous international standards, including Cradle to Cradle Product Innovation Institute certification. Recognised globally, EcoCocon was ranked highly in innovation awards for its use of regionally available, renewable materials—proving that sustainable construction can also be cutting-edge.
