Meet the material

Gypsum and bio-ash. A surface of their own.
Rumett combines gypsum and bio-ash in mineral panels with an exposed cast finish. The grain and variation are part of the surface you see, giving the material a visible role in the room.
Explore the surfaces01 / The ingredients
What goes into the panel.
Gypsum is the mineral at the heart of the panel. It is combined with bio-ash to form Rumett’s cast material.
The panel has no paper facing, and its surface is designed to remain visible without an applied coating.

02 / The surface
Made to remain visible.
Variation gives each panel its character. Look closer, and the fine grain becomes part of the story.


03 / The next use
Think beyond the first installation.
Keeping a panel in use starts before it is installed. Removable connections, accessible fixings and a plan for careful handling can make it easier to recover components when a room changes.
The aim is to use the panel again as a panel, keeping the finished surface in service.
01
Plan the installation
Consider the frame, fixings and access alongside the surface.
02
Remove with care
Plan handling, condition checks and where panels will go next.
03
Find the next use
Confirm the recovered panels suit their next installation.
Reuse and recycling are different steps.
Reuse means using an existing panel again. Recycling means processing material to make a new product. Both need a practical route: somewhere the panel can be used, or a processor able to accept its material.
Ask about suitability for reuse and the options available for the specific product in your location.
Look at the whole life of a material.
Ingredients are part of the picture. Manufacturing, transport, installation, maintenance and what happens after use all matter.
For a fair comparison, the options should provide the same function and cover the same stages of use. Include the supporting construction and finishes, too.
