The Global Waste Generation Meter Surpassed 2 Billion annual tons of Municipal Solid Waste, with 70% of that ending up in landfills and dumpsites…
...and the meter is ticking faster!
The world generates over 2 billion tons of Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) annually, with about 1.5 billion tons of that waste ending up in landfills and dumpsites. While landfills are among the biggest contributors to soil pollution, 90% of all America’ solid waste does not get recycled.
We throw away 2.5 million plastic bottles every hour and that’s just in the United States. That’s 42,000 plastic bottles per minute, or about 695 plastic bottles per second, and it takes twice as much energy to burn plastic than to recycle plastic.
Oh, before I forget, it takes 450 years for average sized plastic water bottles to fully decompose.

Xeriant's Green Vision
“The report’s modelling shows that getting waste under control by taking waste prevention and management measures could limit net annual costs by 2050 to USD 270.2 billion. However, projections show that a circular economy model, where waste generation and economic growth are decoupled by adopting waste avoidance, sustainable business practices, and full waste management, could in fact lead to a full net gain of USD 108.5 billion per year.”
Any technology that could even reduce some of that damage would, obviously, be very valuable.
However, what if, instead of just releasing some of the waste management chain pressure, it was possible to take discarded plastics and cardboard and turn that waste into a viable product?
What if the resultant product outperforms the conventional options?
What if regulatory issues forced your target market to look to your company for solutions?
What if this product became the key to solving the affordable housing crisis?
Before we go any further, let’s quickly recap. I just laid out a dream circular economy scenario of reducing landfill pressure, which provides multiple layers of environmental benefits, and turning that waste into a product that outperforms the conventional options, in a market that’s already desperately seeking solutions for one of today’s most important social issues.
Please keep in mind that the aforementioned scenario is based on real world technology and that’s just one of the technologies that this little Company controls.
What would all of this mean for investors?
Landfill sites are worse than just ugly, they are a major source of toxins, leachate and greenhouse gases.
At the top of their list was a high-performance Flame Retardant, a key for transportation applications ranging from everyday EVs to spacecraft reentering the atmosphere. So, management teamed up with a leading technical university to develop XeriFR, the best technology in this space.
Following its FR breakthrough, Xeriant fielded numerous inquiries from a wide variety of companies, confirming that Xeriant developed a practical solution for many potential markets and, as a new building material, it potentially could save homeowners and insurance companies $Billions annually.

Xeriant Developed a Breakthrough Ecofriendly Fire Retardant, Potentially Impacting Industries Valued at Over $5 Trillion
Xeriant’s biodegradable and nontoxic high-performance thermal- and fire-protection chemical agent is custom formulated to meet each application’s specifications and can be applied as a coating or treatment or infused during manufacturing into a variety of materials, including recycled plastics and wood-based fiber.
XeriFR is an intumescent material used for fire protection and swells when exposed to heat. This reaction is leveraged in construction materials to seal off flames from penetrating walls, floors, and ceilings. This endothermic reaction, when exposed to fire, absorbs heat and releases non-toxic gasses, which eliminates flames and creates a protective foam layer working as a fire barrier between the flame and a variety of materials, including polymers, woods and textiles.
XeriFR can be combined with other materials to make new product categories, like NexBoard™, composed of recycled plastic and cardboard waste.
The number of potential applications for XeriFR is almost unlimited, impacting a broad range of industries from transportation and construction to electronics and home furnishings, valued at over $5 Trillion. In the aerospace industry, XeriFR is anticipated to have far reaching implications for improving safety and reducing aircraft maintenance, with potential uses in airframe structures, cabin interiors, wiring insulation and engine components.
Xeriant FR’s exceptional fire protection properties generated interest from key U.S construction industry players and building materials retailers, who are looking for more cost-effective and sustainable fire protection solutions. The global green construction materials market, estimated at $318 Billion in 2021, is projected to reach $575 Billion by 2027, based on a report by Emergen Research.

A Confluence of Greentech and Other Major Trends Points to Success for Xeriant
Greentech building materials, one of the fastest growing industries in the world, was valued at $ 422.27 billion in 2023 and is projected to grow from USD 474.21 billion in 2024 to USD 1,199.52 billion by 2032, exhibiting a CAGR of 12.3% during the forecast period. North America dominated the green building materials market with a market share of 32.05% in 2023.
International Incentives are Forcing Green Initiatives and we’re aligning with the Megatrend
The confluence of this greentech building materials wave, along with the following global factors and trends, creates a fortunate opportunity for Xeriant:
- Plastic and cardboard waste crisis: Burying plastic and cardboard waste in landfills is unsustainable, pressing the need for more recycling and other alternatives. Globally, about 270 million metric tons of plastic waste and about 380 million metric tons of cardboard waste are produced annually (the World Bank). Utilizing recycled plastic and cardboard to produce Xeriant’s NexBoard™ XeriFR-infused panels could have a major positive impact on the environment.
- Toxic flame retardants ban: Europe is eliminating about 12,000 toxic chemicals, including flame retardants, which have been linked to a number of illnesses. The EPA and the Consumer Product Safety Commission are also taking steps to ban certain toxic and bio-accumulative flame retardants linked to health issues. These regulatory actions create a tremendous opportunity for Xeriant’s eco-friendly flame retardant, XeriFR and building materials made from XeriFRl and recycled materials.
- Affordable housing crisis: An estimated 3 billion people, about 40 percent of the world’s population, will need access to adequate housing by 2030. Currently, over 100 million people worldwide are homeless and 1.6 billion people are living in substandard housing (United Nations). NNC’s innovative rapid building systems using NexBoard™ will offer quality, affordable homes to those in need, while helping to clean up the environment.
- Skyrocketing flood and fire insurance rates: Increased safety and durability in building materials will reduce property damage from fire and water, which is expected to translate into lower insurance rates as insurers recognize the value of these materials. Most drywall and plywood damaged from water exposure needs to be replaced. NexBoard™ with XeriFRl is fire-, water-, insect and mold-resistant.
The world generates over 2 billion tons of Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) annually, with about 1.5 billion tons of that waste ending up in landfills and dumpsites. While landfills are among the biggest contributors to soil pollution, 90% of all America’ solid waste does not get recycled.
We throw away 2.5 million plastic bottles every hour and that’s just in the United States. That’s 42,000 plastic bottles per minute, or about 695 plastic bottles per second, and it takes twice as much energy to burn plastic than to recycle plastic.
Oh, before I forget, it takes 450 years for average sized plastic water bottles to fully decompose.
The green and sustainability movement is global, and gaining momentum, even before November 15, 2021, when President Biden Signed the Bipartisan Infrastructure Bill.
The Infrastructure Bill contains significant green building incentives. Some of the top provisions in the bill use-cases related to potential XeriFRl-infused products include:
$5 BILLION
for airport terminal modernization
$500 MILLION
in grants for green school facilities upgrades
$225 MILLION
for implementation of model building energy efficiency improvements
The EU’s “Restrictions Roadmap” is the largest ever ban on hazardous substances and eliminates up to 12,000 toxic chemicals, including flame retardants, which have been linked to a number of illnesses, including cancer, hormonal disruption and neurological damage, as well as environmental issues. XeriFR, which Xeriant controls the exclusive worldwide rights to is positioning to become a leading replacement for these chemicals.
Xeriant remains focused on acquiring and developing ecofriendly breakthrough technologies and advanced materials which can be successfully integrated and commercialized for a broad range of applications.
Even just slowing spread of a residence fire could be the difference between you or a loved one having the extra time needed to escape harm from fire and smoke inhalation.
