Xeriant, Inc. (OTCQB: XERI) has highlighted Colorado's implementation of new statewide wildfire resiliency building codes, which the company said reflect a growing national shift toward fire-resistant and non-combustible construction standards. The company noted that the evolving regulatory environment could increase demand for advanced building technologies such as its NEXBOARD(TM) composite panel platform and NexPatch(TM) fire-resistant joint compound as it continues testing, certification and commercialization efforts for its construction materials portfolio.
According to Xeriant, the new Colorado codes, which took effect in 2024, require fire-resistant materials in certain wildfire-prone areas, setting a precedent that other states may follow. This trend aligns with the company's focus on developing eco-friendly, non-combustible building materials. Xeriant's NEXBOARD is a patent-pending composite panel made from recycled plastic and fiber waste, designed to replace traditional materials like drywall, plywood, and OSB. The company markets its advanced materials line under the DUREVER(TM) brand.
The company believes that as more states adopt similar building codes, the demand for fire-resistant construction materials will rise, presenting a significant market opportunity. Xeriant is actively pursuing testing and certification to ensure its products meet the required standards. The full press release is available at https://nnw.fm/atIBd.
