Flexicomb

Flexicomb is a honeycomb or similar shaped material which can have hundreds of uses. The design comprises thousands of synthetic polypropylene tubes melded into Honey comb form. On its own, the design aesthetic and a fertile material to imagination for many types of things perhaps thousands. 

Kinetic Glass

The manufacturers say the following about Kinetic glass. Kinetic Glass is a responsive surface that reacts to environmental conditions and changes shape via curling or opening and closing gills. The surface is thin, lightweight, and transparent with no motors or mechanical parts. The system may be used with a variety of switches or sensors and controlled via microprocessors and complex algorithms, allowing one to perform a variety of applications. 

Bendable concrete

Today's concrete is brittle; any bending and excessive weight will make it crack. A new type of fiber-reinforced bendable concrete is going revolutionize the building Industry

Concrete Canvas

Concrete Canvas is a flexible cement impregnated fabric that hardens on
adding water to form a thin, durable, waterproof, and fire proof concrete layer. It is concrete on a roll Just Add Water it becomes solid. Concrete Canvas is available in portable rolls for applications with limited access or where heavy plant equipment is not available.

Low E Glass Coating

Low-E glass has a microscopically thin, transparent coating, thinner than a human hair it reflects infrared energy (or heat). The inside heat tries to escape to the cold weather outside during the winter; the low-e coating reflects the heat back to the inside, heat loss through the glass. Exactly opposite happens during summer. Since low-e glass is comprised of extremely thin layers of silver or other low emissivity materials, it acts like the conventional thermos. The silver low-e coating reflects the interior temperatures back inside, keeping the room warm or cold.

Paper Insulation

Paper insulation made from recycled newspapers and cardboard, although it is not a new material but it was lost due to adverse publicity of competitors' in the 70's. It is making a comeback now and is superior insulation alternative to chemical foam insulation.
