At Modulex, sustainability is a core design principle. Every material we select, every product we design, and every solution we deliver is guided by one principle: create signage that makes a lasting impression on people, not the planet.

We’ve focused on advancing sustainable signage innovation for years. Today, we’re proud to introduce a new generation of materials that push boundaries, are engineered for performance, designed for flexibility, and built to last.

Etronit: Paper-Based. Purpose-Driven.

Crafted in our factory in Billund, Denmark, Etronit is a sleek, durable paper laminate that redefines sustainable signage. With 25% recycled content and a carbon footprint 53% lower than traditional acrylics, it supports circularity through long-life design and responsible sourcing. And when its job is done, it’s compatible with waste-to-energy systems.

GreenBond™: Stronger Design. Smaller Footprint.

GreenBond™ is our high-performance alternative to aluminium composite materials (ACMs). Made from recycled paper laminates and a UV-printable polyester surface, it delivers a premium visual impact with 41% lower carbon emissions. It’s designed to deliver performance with a smaller footprint.

Compact: Bio-Based. Built to Perform.

Compact is a certified, fire-rated signage material with up to 60% bio-based content, including recycled wood and cardboard. Sourced from FSC®-certified forests, it’s ideal for high-end interior and outdoor applications where durability and sustainability are key.

Green Cast®: Acrylic, Reinvented.

Green Cast® is 100% recycled acrylic that performs like new, offering the same clarity and quality as virgin material with a 75% smaller carbon footprint. Recyclable and designed to enable circular use cycles, it helps reduce waste.

ReBond: From Carpet Waste to Creative Statement.

Developed in partnership with Dansk Wilton and Elektro-Isola, ReBond transforms recycled carpet waste into striking indoor signage. With a carbon footprint 63% lower than ACMs, it’s a powerful example of how design can drive meaningful reuse.

Designed with Purpose. Delivered with Impact.

These materials are sustainability-driven and strategic. As part of our Purpose-led strategy, they reflect our ongoing commitment to responsible design and environmental progress. Every sign we create is an opportunity to make a better choice for our clients, communities, and planet.
