Build a brighter future for people and planet
Our History
Nexii was founded in 2019 by two visionary inventors united by a commitment to advancing sustainable construction. Following more than a decade of rigorous research and development, they introduced a revolutionary building system centered around patented wall panels made with Nexiite—a proprietary material engineered to be both stronger and lighter than conventional concrete.
The inaugural structure, constructed in Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan, quickly demonstrated the transformative potential of Nexii’s technology. In just four years, the company achieved unicorn status, delivering over 40 projects for industry-leading clients including Starbucks, McDonald's, and Walmart, while nearly doubling its revenue year-over-year.
Where We Are Now
Following the acquisition of core assets in 2024, Nexii relaunched with a leaner, more focused strategic vision. Nexii is built around a re-engineered production facility in Squamish, British Columbia, and driven by a commitment to operational excellence, strategic procurement, and market-responsive innovation.
We’ve streamlined our team, revitalized our brand, and reaffirmed our focus on what truly delivers value: speed, performance, and sustainability. Our product is proven. Our team is energized. And with our new tagline—Faster. Smarter. Greener.—we are rebuilding a company positioned to scale, lead, and inspire.
Nexii's approach to construction provides a solution to the growing challenges that are affecting brands, developers, and general contractors.
As communities grow and the demand for critical infrastructure accelerates, the construction industry faces mounting challenges from labor shortages and strained supply chains. At the same time, building owners are increasingly constrained by extended project timelines, rising construction costs, and growing operational expenses. While the push for high-efficiency, low-impact buildings continues to rise, these projects often require greater investments of time, effort, and capital—leading many to default to traditional construction methods and materials, often at the expense of environmental sustainability.
