Aloha 2025 🌺 🏝️ Construction is moving forward in Hawaii with our TechPartner Advanced Building Technology Inc. and ‘A’ali’i Building Systems. Why MgO Cement Technology matters for Hawaii: ▪️ Fire Resistance: Essential for regions prone to wildfires and natural disasters, offering lasting safety and peace of mind. ▪️Moisture Control: Naturally resistant to mold and mildew, perfect for Hawaii's tropical, humid climate. ▪️Strength and Flexibility: Designed to withstand hurricane-force winds and environmental challenges. ▪️Sustainability: Low-carbon, energy-efficient materials that reduce the environmental impact of remote builds. TechPanels leverage ZS2’s magnesium oxide (MgO) cement technology as durable, protective sheathing on both sides of the panel. This design offers added resilience while streamlining construction, reducing on-site waste, and accelerating timelines—key benefits for remote, resource-limited regions like Hawaii.

Built with advanced MgO cement technology, TechPanel foundations deliver unmatched protection against moisture, rot, and degradation, ensuring long-term durability and stability. The integrated insulation eliminates the need for separate thermal layers, improving energy efficiency and reducing thermal bridging for a more sustainable building. Custom-cut to project specifications and equipped with pre-cut utility channels, TechPanels simplify on-site assembly, reduce labor costs, and accelerate project timelines. Have a project in mind, but need some help with cementing the foundation? Get in touch, we can help.

We dubbed 2024 the Year of the Lab Coat—and wow, did it deliver. From doubling our research and technical team to innovating multiple new applications for our magnesium cement technology, we achieved some significant milestones. Thank you to our team, partners, and supporters who made this year one for the books. We couldn't be more proud of what we collectively accomplished and what’s still to come. Read our full recap at the link: https://lnkd.in/gvzgpmKf Here’s to 2025—stronger, smarter, and more sustainable than ever before.

'Twas the night before Christmas, and all through ZS2, The TechCrew was busy packing building materials for you. The TechPanels were stacked in the yard with care, In hopes that the transport truck soon would be there. The lights on the TechHouse were dimmed for the night, Wrapped in MgO, it glowed with delight. As we end 2024 and wind down production, Here’s to another year of decarbonizing construction!

⭐ SSRIA Member Feature Friday! ⭐ SSRIA member ZS2 Technologies has helped bring some sweet treats to Edmonton! 🍩 They partnered with Krispy Kreme during construction to use their TechPanels in order to streamline construction, minimize waste and deliver exceptional energy efficiency! Read more ⬇️
One week since Krispy Kreme's grand opening, and the buzz is still going strong! Their brand-new 4,600 sq. ft. flagship location in Edmonton, Alberta, marks a sweet re-entry into the Canadian market. To ensure a durable, high-performance building envelope for this landmark project, Krispy Kreme partnered with ZS2 Technologies. Our TechPanels—integrating framing, insulation, and MgO cement sheathing—streamlined construction, minimized waste, and delivered exceptional energy efficiency. Massive kudos to this iconic chain for prioritizing sustainable construction and walking the walk. It’s one thing to talk about sustainability—it’s another to build it into your foundation. Here’s to innovation, great design, and maybe even grabbing a hot donut fresh off the line 🍩 Tyra Jarbeau, Levi Hetrick, Shil P.

Sealed Tight. Built Right. The roof package is underway at Tataskweyak Cree Nation, Split Lake. With floors, walls, and roof coming together, this project is well on its way to being fully enclosed using our 3-in-1 TechPanels. Huge shoutout to the crew for their impressive work on site. Battling temperatures of -20°C to -25°C (that’s -4°F to -13°F) with windchills pushing it down to -30°C to -35°C (-22°F to -31°F) in Northern Manitoba, Canada. True grit and determination on display. This facility will provide much-needed support for the community, and we’re proud to be part of it and see it come to life. #HighPerformanceEnvelope #PrefabConstruction #FasterConstruction
