Restoration Partners LLC has officially launched the innovative Basilisk self-healing concrete products in the United States, aiming to revolutionize the construction industry with sustainable solutions. The company hosted two significant launch events, one at the Biltmore Hotel in Coral Gables, Florida on October 22, and another in the Washington DC/Baltimore area on October 24.
During the events, Anna Jensen, Managing Partner of Restoration Partners, emphasized the company’s commitment to transforming construction through advanced technology and sustainability. She discussed the challenges faced by traditional concrete, such as cracking and high repair costs, and how Basilisk products effectively address these issues.
Bart van der Woerd, Managing Director of Green-Basilisk, traveled from Amsterdam to serve as the keynote speaker. He introduced three key Basilisk products:
Van der Woerd highlighted several benefits of Basilisk technology, including extended lifespan and reduced maintenance costs, watertight properties that protect against corrosion, and a lower environmental impact due to decreased reliance on steel rebar.
A live demonstration of the ER7 product showcased its effectiveness in sealing sidewalk cracks, further illustrating the practical applications of this groundbreaking technology.
The launch events attracted a diverse audience from the construction sector, including developers and contractors, who expressed enthusiasm for Basilisk’s potential to transform the concrete market.
Restoration Partners noted a growing demand for self-healing concrete in North America, driven by a commitment to sustainable construction practices and innovation. Global projections suggest that the self-healing concrete market could reach $364.4 billion by 2031, fueled by increasing infrastructure needs and a focus on sustainable materials.
The introduction of Basilisk products represents a significant advancement toward a more resilient future for the US construction industry.
