Innovation

Product Innovation

Dedication to advancing the future of nature based materials is evident in groundbreaking innovations surrounding the uptake of mass and engineered timber in construction.

Fire

Factory applied, cost effective, clear epoxy intumescent coating for improved response to fire, ideally suited to Mass Timber.

Decay

Infused Silicate based technology with mineralised CO2. Stores carbon whilst bolstering fire and decay protection. Potential to mitigate embodied carbon during production.

Phase: Commercialisation

Ongoing research into new Infused nanotech treatment

Climate Action with Wood Product Protocol ™

Features

  • Validates the sustainable sourcing and processing of timber material
  • Calculates and tokenises the embodied and biogenic carbon in timber buildings
  • Stores immutable data on the material: certifications, manufacturer data, engineering, architectural and compliance data
  • Facilitates the pathway for the creation of carbon offset credits and qualifies for emissions reporting

Key Benefits

  • Creating supply-chain transparency
  • Puts manufacturers in competition for the lowest embodied carbon solution, promoting sustainable practices
  • Validates the biogenic carbon value of timber, promoting its use as a building material
  • Circularity enabled by tech – allows for onward reuse of material after building end-of-life, recording compounding avoided emissions

WPP - Proof of Concept Project

Geneo - Capitaland Singapore

Slated for completion in Q2 of 2024, Geneo features a 27m-tall mass timber canopy containing 1,145 m3 of structural glulam, storing 952 tonnes of CO2-e
A 2 hr fire rated Canopy sprawling over 3100m2 Innovation includes Girod connections full assembly tested in Singapore.
Current LCA calculations put GHG emissions for the entire value chain at around 70 tCO2e, which results in the timber structure being carbon negative – a carbon storage value of over 950 tonnes of CO2-e.
GHG data, with manufacturing, certification and compliance data, was tokenised on a Web3 format Forming the building blocks for onward use in emissions reporting or converted into carbon storage credits . Setting up the material for future BuyBack programs.
