CALGARY — ZS2 is expanding its North American manufacturing footprint into the United States through the integration of manufacturing assets from Supreme Insulated Panel Systems LLC, based in Mobile, Alabama. This expansion increases available production capacity for magnesium cement panelized building systems to support growing demand across U.S. and Caribbean construction markets.
Per a Feb. 12 press release, as demand continues to reportedly grow for materials that improve fire performance, durability, and long-term building resilience, expanding manufacturing capacity to meet increasing demand in key Southern and Eastern United States markets helps accelerate adoption of these systems while strengthening domestic access to advanced construction materials.
“Demand for higher-performance building materials is accelerating across North America as the industry responds to climate risk, insurance pressure, and evolving building performance expectations,” said Scott Jenkins, CEO, ZS2 Technologies. “Expanding manufacturing capacity into the United States strengthens the industry’s ability to access advanced building systems at scale and supports long-term material innovation across the built environment.”
Per the press release, Supreme Insulated Panel Systems has served residential and commercial construction markets with energy-efficient insulated panel systems. Their manufacturing background is being combined with ZS2’s magnesium cement technology to try and support broader adoption of higher-performance building envelope systems across U.S. construction markets.
Production capabilities at the Mobile facility are being phased in alongside standard third-party certification and facility qualification processes, with additional listed production capabilities expected to come online as certification pathways are completed later this year.
