In 2008, the inventor of the Ipac block was a visionary. He thought of transforming discarded cardboard into a formidable ecological building material. Fifteen years later, he builds “cardboard” houses.

Bat'Ipac uses cardboard to insulate buildings thanks to its recyclable and recycled cardboard sheets with cells.
Bat'Ipac is the story of Hubert Lue, an Phone Number List inventor who in 2008 already saw that cardboard would be a material of the future. With its thermal, acoustic and insulating qualities, could cardboard be the future of ecological insulation? He so he believed it.
Recycled cardboard as construction material.
Hubert Lue carried out numerous tests for his first wooden construction module. The particularity of this device lies in its insulating capacity, thanks above all to the honeycomb cardboard filling.
In 2012, with entrepreneur Alain Marboeuf, they founded Bat'Ipac and patented the invention before building their first house in Belle-Île-en-Mer in 2013. At that time, they also obtained ten-year insurance for their innovative system and They patented the invention on a European scale.
In 2017, they won the gold medal at the Salon des Inventeurs in Geneva. Since then, its insulation system has been approved by the technological institute Forêt Cellulose Bois-Construction Ameublement (FCBA) and has just received the “Solar Impulse Efficient Solution” label. Innovation continues to grow with more than 100 houses insulated with alveolar cardboard.
If you have ever been in a logistics warehouse and seen the folded “cardboard bales”, you can get an idea of what we are talking about. The same goes for the cardboard boxes that are thrown into the blue bin. Bat'Ipac reuses cardboard discarded by companies and individuals to manufacture raw materials from it. At the sorting center, used cardboard and paper are collected and recycled in the form of corrugated cardboard sheets.
These products are then delivered to a local occupational center, in order to promote the work of people with disabilities.
These employees are then responsible for transforming the sheets into Ipac blocks. The cardboard sheets are then glued together with an environmentally friendly glue based on starch or corn. They are then wrapped with a heat-sealed polypropylene sealing membrane with a fire resistance rating of M1 (combustible, non-flammable). The Ipac blocks finally arrive at the company to be installed in the wooden frames of private homes.
