GRAPHENE-ENHANCED CONCRETE ADMIXTURE

Stronger. Faster. Greener.

VerteQ is a graphene admixture for ready-mix concrete that doubles compressive strength, collapses cure time from weeks to days, and uses up to 20% less cement — without changing how a single yard is poured.

THREE WAYS VERTEQ PAYS FOR ITSELF

One product. Three ways to win on your project.

Every concrete project has a bottleneck. Some are bleeding money on schedule. Some are over-buying cement to lift early. Some are facing carbon mandates they can't meet with conventional mixes. VerteQ solves each of them differently.

1
Schedule Acceleration
FOR THE OWNER

Cut weeks off the structural shell. On a single 500,000 sf tilt-up data center, that's ~55 days off the panel campaign — and ~$1.6M of construction-loan and general-conditions cost the owner stops carrying.

2
Material Substitution
FOR THE CONTRACTOR

Contractors over-design tilt walls to lift early — at the cost of $73K–$117K of extra cement on a single building. VerteQ delivers the same early lift strength without the extra cement. Same outlay, less material, scoreable carbon reduction.

3
Design Optimization
FOR THE ENGINEER & OWNER

Spec at 3,000 psi. Deliver 6,000+ psi performance. The strength margin lets engineers safely specify lower design strengths — capturing lower delivered concrete cost and dramatic embodied-carbon reduction across walls, slab, and beyond.

ONE BUILDING. BY THE NUMBERS.

500,000 SF tilt-up data center.

Conventional schedule: ~95 days for the panel campaign alone. With VerteQ: ~40 days. Same crew, same equipment, same supplier — just a different admixture.

~$114K of admixture spend protects the front of the critical path. ~14× return on hard dollars — before any credit for earlier revenue, the carbon credit, or the longer life of the structure.

THE DEFENSIBLE DIFFERENCE

Most graphene comes from a mine. Ours comes from biowaste.

Industry-standard graphene is mined from graphite and refined through toxic chemical processes. Expensive. Environmentally regressive. Supply-constrained.

VerteQ's graphene — branded Biocene — is grown from biowaste through a proprietary, non-petroleum, low-carbon process. It's the only graphene-enhanced admixture on the market today whose sustainability story holds up to procurement scrutiny.

And it's the only one a chemistry major can't simply replicate. Multiple patents and trade secrets cover the chemistry, the production process, and the application.

WHERE VERTEQ IS BEING DEPLOYED

Application-agnostic. From tilt-up panels to mass infrastructure.

VerteQ is dispensed through standard ready-mix equipment at 3 lb per cubic yard. It performs across tilt-up panels, slabs-on-grade, footings, columns, beams, and any structural concrete pour. Compatible with Type I, II, III, and Type IL (portland-limestone) cements.

HYPERSCALE
Data Centers

Revenue-at-stake buildings where every day of carry is real money. VerteQ pulls cure time off the critical path and unlocks earlier delivery on tilt-up shells.

LUXURY
Resorts & Hospitality

Coastal builds with saltwater exposure and tight grand-opening schedules. Stronger, longer-lived concrete in less time — without changing the construction crew's workflow.

Infrastructure & Stadiums

We needed 6,000 PSI. We ordered 3,000 PSI plus VerteQ. Got 7,200 PSI. Framed in a week instead of three. Used 20% less concrete. Saved 15% on steel.
