Suvo Strategic Minerals Ltd (ASX:SUV) executive director Aaron Banks sits down with Proactive’s Jonathan Jackson to talk about a binding joint development agreement (JDA) between its subsidiary Climate Tech Cement Pty Ltd (CTC) and Polevine Pty Ltd (PERMAcast) to deliver and commercialise low carbon geopolymer concrete (GPC) products.

Banks highlighted the collaboration with PERMAcast as a significant milestone, marking the start of production at PERMAcast’s facility. The agreement allows Suvo to address numerous inquiries about their product

The initial product, Colliecrete, will be showcased in a major Western Australian Government infrastructure project, facilitated by the Sustainability Waste Alliance (SWA). This project involves the delivery of 1,000mm x 300mm x 300mm low carbon geopolymer backing blocks by the end of the month.

The JV will develop and test various GPC formulations to achieve concrete strengths of 10, 20, 30, and 40 MPa. It will also characterise applications for different GPC strengths, assess cost and performance, and determine the optimal commercialisation strategy. PERMAcast will fund the project and any new intellectual property created will be owned by the JV, acknowledging Murdoch University’s background IP rights licensed to Suvo.
