This video illustrates Zipblocks being used to construct bridge columns, cinderblock-like walls, and how pre-tiled Zipblocks can be used to instantly assemble tiled walls & floors.
Zipblocks are a unique modular interlocking construction technology that allows builders to instantly build "finished" projects on just about any scale.
***Some advantages of building with Zipblocks are***
Green Technology: Zipblocks create zero waste during construction as when you cut a Zipblock in two you are only creating two smaller Zipblocks. Zipblocks can be manufactured from renewable resources or from recycled materials. Unless Zipblocks are glued together they are a re-usable building product.
Bond any two different materials together: You can join Styrofoam Zipblocks to steel Zipblocks to wood Zipblocks to rubber Zipblocks with ease. Because Zipblocks mechanically interlock they will always bond to other Zipblocks...regardless of the materials from which they are made.
Simple: Zipblocks simply lock together on placement.
No tools required: No tools are required to build using Zipblocks.
No adhesives required: Use of adhesives with Zipblocks to enhance stability is optional.
No Screws or nails required: Use of screws and nails to enhance stability is optional.
No skilled labor required: If you can assemble a toy-construction brick kit...you have the skills necessary to build with Zipblocks.
Add fibrous strength to large structures: You can add fibrous strength to structures by weaving lengths of Zipblocks together in opposing directions. Think of it like this. Plywood is very strong but it only comes in limited sizes. Zipblocks allow you to build things virtually any size and at the same time the entirety of whatever you build can exhibit the strength characteristics exhibited by plywood.
Extremely strong: It is extremely easy to reinforce Zipblocks via rebar and steel reinforcements.
Save time: You can build life-size structures almost as quickly as you can put toy-construction brick kits together. Click here to see how fast a course of Zipblocks can be laid.
Inexpensive to manufacture: Because Zipblocks are so simple...we estimate that manufacturing them would only cost 10% of the actual cost of the raw materials used to fabricate them.
Pre-tiled wall, floors, patios, and walkways: You can build instant tiled flooring with Zipblocks.
Limitless Application: What can you build with Zipblocks? Well you can build anything that you can build with toy-construction brick's...but on a much larger scale. You can build bridges, toys, landscape edging, tunnels, balconies, walls, etc. etc.
Easy for robots to fabricate products with: Because of their cubic/interlocking properties it is easy to program CNC machines to fabricate products using Zipblocks. At Zipblocks we like to refer to this process as robolithography.
Variety: Zipblocks come in many flavors. There are basic Zipblocks, advanced Zipblocks, snake Zipblocks, Curve Zipblocks, and etc. They all have special characteristics that make them ideal for certain applications.
