The paper honeycomb substrate was used to create winter wildlife scenes including birds and a life-size family of deer and has subsequently used Ultra Board in a children's environmentally friendly flat-pack rocking horse, the Eco Rocker.

The rocking horse uses one Dufaylite 3000mm x 1200mm x 18mm GR board with all waste material used in the packaging, while the Oliver Bonas work used 33sqm.

"I use Ultra Board for a range of applications," said Thomas. "In addition to being incredibly strong in load-bearing situations, it is also a perfect material for temporary and one-off structures because it is 100% recyclable when it is time to create the next scheme.

"Dufaylite can cut Ultra Board according to my detailed designs, meaning that virtually anything is possible in terms of realising a vision for retail clients."
