Midday Market Dispatch- From Eco‑Boards to AI Batteries

DENVER, Colo., Oct 02, 2025 (247marketnews.com)-Xeriant (OTCQB:XERI) is attracting renewed investor focus after completing a production run of its NEXBOARD™ composite panels made from recycled plastic and fiber waste. XERI’s eco‑board is engineered for fire, mold, and water resistance, with certifications pending. CEO Keith Duffy credited a partner with 30+ years in thermoplastics for helping “streamline the production process,” a move expected to drive lower cycles and cost efficiency. In a world chasing greener building materials, XERI is staging itself as a scalable, sustainable alternative to drywall and cement board, a bet that ESG capital could soon underwrite.
