TORONTO, Jan. 18, 2024 /CNW/ - Mike Holmes, well-known TV Host & Contractor is joining forces with NUCAP, a global innovation company to launch EZblocks (formerly GRIPBlock). These simple, multi-purpose, wood blocks make building almost anything super easy and even easier to take apart - just like kid's toy building blocks but life size!
EZblocks have the flexibility and adaptability of toy building blocks, but with the strength and durability for real world projects. Build them up, take them down, and build them back up again. It's that easy. The blocks are made out of post-industrial recycled wood with no glues or fasteners, so they're better for the environment. Plus, the blocks can be reused over and over again.
"If you know me, you know I love simple innovations," says Mike Holmes. "What really makes this product special is the innovative metal strips, called GRIPMetal on the top and bottom of each block. This technology is a game changer."
"The foundational technology behind EZblocks is NRS. NRS (NUCAP Retention System) eliminated the use of glue in brakes by introducing mechanical fusion. This same technology is the brilliance behind EZblocks ", says CEO, Montu Khokhar.
The strips of tiny metal teeth, when placed on top of each other, grip together with tremendous lateral strength. The blocks can be stacked to become a solid structure and the set-up process is so easy. Structures can be set-up in hours. You can also secure the blocks structurally for permanent structures as well!
You can paint them, stain them, and decorate them. EZblocks can be used to build patio enclosures, decks, planters, trade show booths, artist murals, special events, even ice rinks – in fact, you can build almost anything.
Launched in 2021, EZblocks have taken the Greater Toronto Area market by storm with 60,000 - 80,000 blocks deployed each year for countless applications, patios and events. "By joining forces with Mike Holmes and his team we will jointly explore more opportunities by further engaging with building and design professionals in cities across Canada. We know there's so much potential with mechanical fusion technology and EZblocks" states CEO, Montu Khokhar
"I can't wait to see what else we, and you, can create with EZblocks," says Holmes. With EZblocks you can Build Today, Change Tomorrow and together, we're going to Make it Right!!
