August 15th, 2023 – TheNewswire - Toronto, Ontario - Bio Graphene Solutions (“BGS” or the “Company”), announced today that it has formed a strategic partnership with Brook Restoration Ltd. (“Brook”), one of the largest structural restoration companies in Canada.
The strategic partnership will enable Brook to leverage BGS’s graphene-enhanced liquid admixture for concrete products in building and public infrastructure projects in Ontario. Brook has also made a strategic investment in BGS’s current financing - further solidifying Brook’s commitment to innovation and sustainability within the construction space.
In January 2023, BGS announced the development of a graphene-enhanced admixture for commercial concrete mix designs. Developed primarily to tackle the removal of cement (the binding material in a concrete mix that also contributes to more than 8% of the global CO2 emissions), the Company’s graphene-enhanced admixture can remove at least 15% of the cement content in concrete without sacrificing the compression strength performance of the overall concrete product. BGS believes its product is the only admixture solution in the market that can facilitate the removal of cement and still provide significant cost and CO2 savings to its potential customers in non-specialized commercial concrete mix designs (35MPa to 50MPa mixtures).
Geoff Grist, Chairman and Founder of Brook, commented “We are proud to support BGS who’s innovative and creative solutions are at the heart of how we drive value in the restoration space. Reducing embodied carbon in concrete structures needs to be addressed more aggressively. Utilizing BGS’s graphene to remove cement content will have this direct impact and provide meaningful sustainability change. We look forward to the success of this strategic partnership and working with our concrete vendors in supporting commercial adoption of BGS’s graphene products overtime.”
Liam Farrell, Chief Operating Officer of BGS, commented “It’s great to see Brook, a thought-leader within the restoration space, champion our graphene admixtures. Due to our extensive testing dataset and our ability to leverage in-house concrete expertise, we continue to attract large organizations within different parts of the concrete supply chain that are interested in learning more about the performance, cost, and environmental benefits of our graphene-enabled solutions. We are excited to engage in this strategic partnership with Brook and how our graphene admixtures can drive value in their commercial projects moving forward.”
Brook Restoration recently published an article entitled “Driving Meaningful Sustainability Change in Concrete Products” that helps provide an understanding to the environmental issues associated with concrete and how nanotechnology can be used as a near-term solution.
