| The RASTRA® elements are molded in a special process. THASTYRON, the name given to the spongy raw material, is compacted by applying a certain amount of pressure before elements are set upon a pallet for curing. | ![]() |

| The RASTRA® elements are cut to exact dimensions after they have been cured. This guarantees small tolerances and straight and even walls. Even the production process is designed to protect our environment, as no energy is used to cure the elements. On average only 1-3kWh is needed to produce each RASTRA® element. During production, no byproducts are set free which may be considered a burden to the environment, and all debris from trimming the elements is immediately recycled and made into new product. |
