About BetR-blok, LLC
Our Story
We began as The Center for Alternative Building Studies (CABS), a non-profit research organization established in 2004. CABS' mission was - and still is - to conduct research on alternative building materials which do not pollute or deplete the environment.
One of CABS' first projects was to investigate the properties of a new building material made from recycled paper and other cellulose materials. As testing began to show the superiority of this material, in comparison to others, it became known as BetR-blok (better block). One of the major tests showed that BetR-blok has high "R" value (insulating capability) which accounts for the capital "R" in its name.

When BetR-blok began to show commercial feasibility, it was spun off from CABS as BetR-blok, LLC. It is hoped that revenue from BetR-blok, when it is fully automated and commercialized, will support its further development as well as provide on-going support for other CABS projects.
