The innovations in technology never cease to amaze us! One of the BrickStainable sponsors, Essroc Italcementi Group, has a product called TX Active that decomposes air pollutants as they react with the surface of a building. A natural chemical reaction, photo catalysis, results in self-cleaning and de-polluting. Talk about tremendous design benefits for the environment!
Martin Vachon, a returning juror to the BrickStainable Design Competition is a consultant to the producer making best use of the product in application. Martin has been involved with the research and reporting system efficiency.
After a decade of research at Essroc’s Bergamo, Italy plant TX Active came to market. There are numerous applications for this technology including vertical, horizontal, structural, and more.
