Colorado

Let me tell you about a project that really proved the worth of this tech. We had a client working on a bridge overpass near Grand Junction. If you know the Western Slope, you know the soil can be incredibly alkaline and the temperature swings are vicious. The previous overpass had reached its end of life years early because the salt from the winter plows had eaten the rebar from the inside out. We introduced our graphene solution for the new deck and support pillars. The engineering team was skeptical at first—builders usually are when they hear something sounds too good to be true. But we showed them how graphene creates a barrier that salt and water simply can’t penetrate. We poured during a particularly fickle Colorado autumn where we had seventy-degree days followed by freezing nights. The results were immediate. The finish was smoother, the curing was more consistent despite the temperature swings, and the initial strength tests blew their expectations out of the water. Two winters later, that overpass looks as fresh as the day it was poured. No spalling, no salt damage, and no ghost cracks. The city engineers finally felt like they had a bridge that could actually survive the Rockies.
