Diverse Applications Of Durisol

Here in the UK, more and more people are realising the benefits of Durisol as a cost-effective and green alternative to building schools, hospitals and housing developments. Around the world, the different properties of Durisol are harnessed in different ways. In Japan, Durisol’s robust properties have met with building standards in earthquake zones, leading to extensive use throughout the country. In Israel, the same features have been put to good use in the construction blast proof dwellings. In Canada and North America, where use of Durisol is more common, research and development into the implications of building with our product continues.
