Who We Are
ZS2 Technologies believes that the power of collective knowledge is unparalleled. By joining forces with diverse partners, we tap into a vast reservoir of industry expertise, scientific insights, and innovative thinking. Our identity is shaped by a collaborative network that encompasses individuals, organizations, and businesses, defining the essence of who we are, our purpose, and the principles that drive us.
Our Story
It all started as an informal business meeting at a Starbucks in 2020—right before a global pandemic shut the world down. Our three co-founders Scott, Doug and Kristin combined their technical expertise with a shared commitment to crafting a safer and more sustainable future.
Founded on the belief that chemistry and sustainability-driven innovation could transform the construction industry, ZS2 Technologies has since propelled the industry forward with constant innovation, fueled by a latte or nine along the way.
Fast forward to the present and a growing team of talented and passionate individuals and an ever-expanding network of collaborative partners, our 48,000 sq. ft. facility in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, serves as a manufacturing hub, material science lab, and collaborative office.
The manufacturing center has undergone its third expansion, increasing capacity to deliver projects across North America. Our award-winning R&D team is pioneering carbon capture and waste-to-cement technologies, positioning us as leaders in the climate technology sector. Ground-breaking partnerships have earned us headlines as we collectively reshape the industry’s future.
And we’re just getting started.
Our Values
Our organizational periodic table extends beyond metaphor. It embodies the collective chemistry defining us. Here, collaboration, tenacity, and curiosity aren’t mere values – they’re the elements of our DNA. Thoughtfully calibrated, they propel our success and innovation forward, much like a precisely balanced chemical compound.
