- Lower Environmental Impact – Our recycled glass products deliver up to a 20:1 reduction in CO₂ emissions compared to traditional cement.
- Divert Waste from Landfills – Our process minimizes glass waste, approaching zero landfill diversion.
- Improve Construction Performance – Our materials enhance concrete strength, durability, corrosion resistance, and weather resistance.
Using state-of-the-art cleaning systems and proprietary fine milling technology, we're producing some of the most advanced recycled glass materials in North America. Our flagship facility in Waterdown, Ontario, with a capacity of 100,000 metric tons per year, is now operational and poised to disrupt the traditional concrete and cement industries.

- Removing 21,000 cars from the road
- Planting 1.6 million trees and nurturing them for over 10 years
