In Florida here, there are thousands of manufactured homes here. Usually, there is plastic "skirting" surrounding the bottom of the home, or... just cement block stacked around the home. In hurricane time, the skirting flexes, and the block falls over. THIS is a fantastic product, that it is a solution for this all across the South.... Find a State or County, that has a big building where it sorts plastic bottles, etc. to get rid of them, and there is a need, for PLAEX...

Needs ..Needs to be cheaper than current conventional buildings are at . Make money .. yes!! of course. but now is the time to get your product out there tested in ever climate zone possible . Then in less than a decade increase the price . Build All different style homes ranch,condo,two story, barn, efficientcy apartment. Any way you could hookup with the Pacific ocean garage pack cleaners. Whole bunch plastic to work with.

Great concept, but I hope this Canadian company can get beyond the protype brick stage, (over the past few years). Sadly eating up much working captial $$...prior to a viable & economical rapid production (that will eat more funds, and complicate greater Risk). // Not saying this to try and be rude, as I only hope for much success going foreward. The building test products are truly unique, in features.

The Brick&Panel™ system is for full-wall structures. It is still in development and undergoing ASTM testing for CSA and ICC certifications. PLAEX products for use in residential and commercial dwellings are anticipated for Q4 2024 - Q1 2025.

Your product is so young. Any paint will stick initially, but what about wind and rain and UV weathering? How long will paint adhere, and on unpainted bricks, what is the weathering resistance of the recycled plastic? I love the design of the bricks, and I think they'd be great for construction in earthquake zones, but we need to know more about their longterm chemical stability.

Hi Andrew! Thanks for your comment :) Our products are not intended for high-temperature applications, such as fire pits. However, our material is flame-resistant. We are working with independent certified labs and universities to test our products and will continue to publish data as more is confirmed.

Our composite (PLAEX-crete™ ) is created with specialty select polymer sources that are known to be generally safer. During development we have consulted with many experts in fire suppression and we have worked with the novel chemistry of our products to reduce flammability and spread as much as possible. We have made a lot of progress so far and we are looking forward to sharing the results as soon as they are verified by third party lab tests. We have achieved this without the use of some of the traditional flame retardants, which are beginning to be banned around the world. They are Fire Resistant, they inhibit flammability of the material, limit flame spread and limit smoke. As they do contain a significant amount of polymer they are not intend for use near open flame, they are NOT TO BE USED FOR FIRE PITS!!! Also, by laminating fireproof materials into the panels of our brick and panel system, our full system will achieve extremely high fire resistance. PLAEX™ products will undergo extensive fire testing in the coming months and we are looking forward to sharing the results.

PLAEX Brick&Panel™ can integrate well with existing structures and traditional finishing methods like drywall and siding. They are based off a 16” center and a standard 2X4 slots into the dovetail interlocks on the sides of the blocks allowing for seamless integrations and easy door/window installs. They also hold screws exceptionally well, far beyond wood or concrete, and without cracking or chipping. D channel blocks and laterally cored blocks will also be available for easy electrical and plumbing integration or rebar and concrete reinforcement, depending on the application. PLAEX Brick&Panel™ can be used in almost any low rise wall application. Trusess can be easily mounted using our unique yet familiar sill plate template technique. Our innovative interlocking panels eliminate the need for siding (Though you can still use it, and our 1” dovetails can act as an effective rainscreen) PLAEX panels integrate technology and provide a siding-like appearance for the bricks. As we scale our product offerings we will offer more panel options such as additional insulation, integrated solar and electrical features, and the exciting potential for collaborative customization of finishes.
