Abanos is implementing Palm Strand Board (PSB) across several major fit-out projects in the UAE to increase carbon sequestration in the built environment. By replacing traditional materials with this palm-based alternative, the company aims to lock carbon into building structures at scale. This approach focuses on utilizing regional agricultural byproducts to reduce the embodied carbon of interior construction. The move highlights a shift toward bio-based materials in the Middle East to meet sustainability goals and reduce reliance on high-emission building products.
