With great respect for the right to assemble, we beg your pardon as we can't be late for this particular meeting about @AquiPorTech shifting the paradigm in how concrete is used in the public right-of-way to bring clean water abundance to Los Angeles.

The @AquiPorTech team had a time in L.A. 30,000 square feet per shift x 2 machines confirmed

Super proud of the @AquiPorTech team. This production run further validates the manufacturability of our tech and how seamlessly it can scale into the concrete industry- whether in precast, pour-in-place, or dry-cast pavers. This is a significant milestone in our commercialization plan. Next stop: a 250 ton per month capacity plant for making our porous aggregate/SCM before the big show.

Exciting Milestone Achievement! 🎉 AquiPor is enjoying a streak of milestones, but we’re thrilled to share that we might have accomplished our most important product and market milestone yet! We recently completed our first commercial paver run with a local block and paver manufacturer to make permeable pavers with “AquiPor Inside”. The run produced roughly 1,000 square feet of permeable pavers that are ready to be installed in demonstration projects. The production process went remarkably well, and though we encountered some early hiccups (as expected with any first run), they provided invaluable insights that allowed us to tweak and optimize our mix designs in real-time. Notably, the “dry-cast” process that is typical for manufacturing pavers actually accentuates the permeability and flow rate characteristics of our products! This achievement represents a significant step forward in our commercialization journey. We now have 1,000 square feet of product ready for projects, demonstrating both scalability and real-world application of our technology. We’re incredibly excited about this development and what it means for our growth trajectory. More updates coming soon as we build on this momentum!”

@rjward1775 @heskelbalas Depends on the composition, how it cures, and how extreme the conditions are, but without air entrainment normal concrete can deteriorate after as little as 20 to 30 freeze-thaw cycles

@rjward1775 @heskelbalas We’ve done some of that too. About 30 cycles. I’ll try to get some video of the next cycle. I think the ASTM standard test is 300 cycles…so we still have some testing ahead of us

@g_g_johnson @heskelbalas To not fracture, it must get the water out really fast. I'd like to put a paver in a shallow container and freeze it to see if fracturing can be induced.

@rjward1775 @heskelbalas It appears as though it’s behaving as a natural air entrainment agent in concrete. Really good results in the field so far, but a lot more testing to come. Upcoming petrograpghic analysis will tell us a lot too

@GlobMarble All of the custom concrete forms, accessories, and concrete vibrating table that we used to prove our manufacturing pilot came from GlobMarble. Amazing customer service, fast turnaround times, and high quality products! Hard to pin a value on what was developed since October!

A little appreciation post for the good folks at @GlobMarble AquiPor’s progress in proving the manufacturability and scalability of our technology over the last few months wouldn’t have happened as rapidly if it weren’t for your products!

Independent testing is up next! We’ll keep pushing the envelope when it comes to innovating one of the world’s most commonly used materials!

This could be especially valuable in regions with limited access to traditional ASR mitigation materials and make our products attractive for critical infrastructure projects in arid regions for a whole new set of reasons.

We’re just scratching the surface of what AquiPor’s porous aggregate can do in concrete, not just for enhancing water-permeability, but also for the performance of concrete over time. Thanks to a helpful insight from an industry ally of ours, we're looking closely at whether our aggregate has some effect in mitigating Alkali-Silica Reactivity in normal concrete.
