Supersede manufactures 100% recyclable building panels that replace traditional plywood, offering lower CO₂ emissions, no VOCs, and superior performance attributes such as waterproofing, termite resistance, and fire resistance while meeting ASTM standards. The panels are produced using automotive‑engineered technology that enables local recycling of plastic waste and includes an off‑cut buy‑back program to reduce material waste and stabilize pricing in the lumber supply chain.

Problem
Construction projects rely on plywood and wood-based sheathing, which generate high CO₂ emissions, contain VOCs and toxic compounds, and are subject to price volatility, supply chain disruptions, and waste from off‑cuts.
Solution
Supersede produces building panels made from 100 % recyclable plastic that meet ASTM strength and fire‑resistance standards. The panels are engineered by automotive experts to provide custom sizing, waterproofing, termite and mold resistance, UV stability, and bi‑directional stiffness, delivering consistent performance without splintering. Real‑time supply‑chain tracking and a fixed‑price, just‑in‑time manufacturing model reduce price fluctuations and improve delivery reliability. An off‑cut buy‑back program captures leftover material for reuse, further lowering waste and cost volatility for builders.
Target Audience
Primary customers are residential and commercial builders, contractors, and developers seeking sustainable, high‑performance sheathing for construction and marine applications.
