These fibers can be used as such for packaging, but also for the production of bonded wood wool boards.

The width of these fibers varies from 5 to 20 mm, while their length is usually around 500 mm (depending on the production process).

When these fibers are bonded with cement or magnesite, bonded wood wool boards are produced. Slabs of bonded wood wool are considered environment friendly construction and insulation materials because they do not contain organic binders.
