Sublime Cement™ has officially appeared in its first commercial construction project, a prominent section of the interior entryway of One Boston Wharf. WS Development has developed this innovative and beautiful building as Boston’s largest net-zero-carbon office building, and we are grateful that they have embraced our material to showcase the possibilities in construction for the post-carbon world. They have an inspiring mission to “create places people want to be” and this building exemplifies that, attracting great tenants (Amazon) while simultaneously advancing a world that is cleaner and more sustainable. We are also excited to report that the concrete made with our low-carbon Sublime Cement™ was poured and finished like the standard material the finishing professionals were accustomed to, making for a regular day operationally but a thrilling one for our product progress. This milestone was made possible by the hard work of our entire team and our collaborators at BOSTON SAND & GRAVEL CO, who have worked closely with us to validate our material for high performance in the field. We are grateful for all the collaborators who helped bring this to life, WS Development, Yanni Tsipis, BOSTON SAND & GRAVEL CO, Jim Carreira, Turner Construction Company, Chris Gilmore, S&F Concrete Contractors, Corp , Gensler, McNamara • Salvia, Structural Engineers. THANK YOU! When the building officially opens, you'll be able to see it for yourself.
