ZS2 Technologies

We’re going LIVE on Instagram from Krispy Kreme’s grand re-entry into Canada! Catch us on-site tomorrow at the grand opening of their new 4,600-square-foot flagship location in Edmonton. This sweet spot isn’t just about donuts — it’s a showcase of smarter, faster construction. Built with ZS2’s TechPanels, this high-performance building envelope combines framing, insulation, and MgO sheathing into one seamless system. 🎥 When: Tuesday, December 10, 2024, 10 am MST 📍 Where: Tune in on ZS2 Instagram Live Whether you’re here for the donuts or the durability, you won’t want to miss it! 🏗️🍩

Completed in under a year, this high-profile project demonstrates how advanced construction technologies can outperform traditional methods—delivering superior speed, quality, and sustainability. In an ambitious effort to modernize community infrastructure, the City of Albuquerque partnered with ZS2 TechPartner Improve Group to build the 5,300 sq. ft. Santa Barbara Martineztown Multigenerational Center. This essential resource for residents of the historic Martineztown neighborhood combines ZS2’s sustainable and resilient materials with prefab innovation to set a new benchmark in municipal construction. Congratulations to Improve Group and project collaborators Falkbuilt Ltd. This center is more than a building—it’s a testament to how construction technologies can help create safer, stronger communities through accelerated construction built to last. 🔗 Read the full case study here: https://lnkd.in/g-hFVEGX Photo Credit: Matt Oberer #ResilientBuilding #PrefabConstruction #Sustainability

The finale is here! 🎉 YYC Business just released the final episode in our 4-part series on The Culture Hack - featuring Doug Brown, Scott Jenkins and Kristin Davis talking about the what, why, and how of magnesium cement and the opportunity in front of us to decarbonize leveraging resilient technology. Extra big thank you to Adam Kolozetti for the chance to share the heart and vision behind ZS2 Technologies. This 4-part series was an amazing platform to highlight our journey, challenges, and big wins in driving sustainability and innovation in the construction industry. In case you missed it - here’s a recap of the series: 💡 Episode 1: The Formula Our co-founders, Scott Jenkins, Kristin Davis, and Doug Brown, took us back to where it all began. From a small team with big dreams to our 48,000 sq. ft. facility buzzing with ideas, this episode dives into the formula behind ZS2’s success. https://lnkd.in/d_TD-ceH 🏭 Episode 2: Decarbonizing the Concrete Industry Join Kristin and Doug for an exclusive behind-the-scenes tour of our manufacturing facility. Learn how we turn saltwater brine and off-spec minerals into magnesium cement products that are durable, sustainable, and game-changing. https://lnkd.in/gtpvcBXC 🔬 Episode 3: Not All Labs Have Beakers Our TechHouse is more than just a testing ground—it’s where we push boundaries. Scott and Tyra Jarbeau give an inside look at how we test our materials in-house, plus a sneak peek at our newest product, TechStone. https://lnkd.in/gFtKdUge 🏗️ Episode 4: Cementing the Future ZS2’s innovative materials are changing the game for prefab construction, enabling faster builds and tackling climate challenges head-on. Doug, Scott, and Kristin discuss our local and North American projects and how we’re scaling up for global impact. https://lnkd.in/gsK4Wer9

Fresh Panels for Fresh Powder ❄️ ZS2 panels have arrived on-site in Tataskweyak Cree Nation, Split Lake, Manitoba! With the site prepped—pilings and beams complete—the team is ready to hit the ground running for installation. Streamlined. Efficient. Winter-ready solutions. 💪 #ConstructionInnovation #ZS2TechPanels #FasterBuilds

Building solutions where they’re needed most. In Yellowknife, Northwest Territories, Kuponya Innovations is taking on the challenge of climate-resilient housing with a remote turnkey project built offsite and assembled last week by a small, first-time crew. Founded at Wilfrid Laurier University, Kuponya Innovations began as a student-led initiative to support communities most affected by climate change, focusing on housing. In Canada, Indigenous communities in the North are among the first and hardest hit by climate impacts, already grappling with a critical housing crisis.

Not All Labs Have Beakers 🧪 The TechHouse is our R&D application lab to test our materials in-house (pun intended, before they arrive to a project site. Episode 3/4 now out with an exclusive tour of the ZS2 TechHouse. Check it out at the link below. https://lnkd.in/gFtKdUge

We’re excited to announce the promotion of Pary Roshan, M.sc to Lab Manager at ZS2 Technologies. Pary joined in the early days of ZS2 and has flourished on our Research and Development Team, cementing herself as a key contributor to our innovation and growth. Since starting as a Research Associate, she has consistently demonstrated strong execution and technical expertise, playing a pivotal role in the development and commercialization of our advanced materials. With a Master’s in Physical Chemistry and bachelor’s degrees in Petroleum Engineering and Applied Chemistry, Pary’s impressive academic résumé proves she’s as smart as she is determined, and it shows in everything she does at ZS2. Her academic achievements reflect her drive to understand the science behind everything she works on, making her an invaluable resource on our team. She has been instrumental in scaling up operations at our tile plant on the manufacturing floor and oversees QA/QC of our boards, conducting routine testing—such as mechanical performance, screw pull-out, and load testing - to ensure that our boards meet the high-performance standards ZS2 is known for. As a co-inventor of ZS2’s carbon-neutral magnesium-based cement patent, Pary combines deep technical expertise with practical problem-solving, turning scientific discoveries into real-world solutions that drive decarbonization in the built environment. Beyond the lab, Pary is always eager to lend a hand, support her colleagues’ growth, or present to client tours in the Tech Centre. She truly embodies our core values of collaboration, curiosity, and tenacity, making her an invaluable part of our team. Congratulations, Pary!
