Better World Materials International, Inc. (BWMI) is a manufacturer of extruded composite materials whose linear tensile strength far surpasses conventional wood products. It is impervious to water, vermin, and termites. It will not crack, warp, split, spall or maintain spontaneous combustion. It is made 100% from municipal waste making it the world's first truly "Green" product. The company's initial product offering will include extruded composite railroad ties and dimensional lumber expected to be very popular in the construction industry, railroad companies and the consuming public because of their strength, longevity and competitive pricing points. The company has demonstrated the finished product and has received contracts for product delivery starting in early 2011Process: Waste management companies are the primary source of the municipal waste used as the raw material in producing our products. Proof of Concept: The patented technology has been demonstrated by processing waste to manufacturerailroad ties superior to any wood or composite alternative currently available. A test report written by Dr. Poo Chow (University of Illinois) detailed the superior tensile strength and life expectancy of the BWM product developed using the patented technology.
