Hardware to Save a Planet

Welcome to this episode of Hardware to Save a Planet. Today, Dylan is joined by Keegan Kirkpatrick, Founder and CEO of RedWorks Construction Technologies, a company with a mission to decarbonize the construction industry. 

Join them as they discuss how RedWorks manufactures bricks on-site using dirt sourced from the construction site, a solution which can replace concrete and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. They also touch on the challenges of introducing new technology to the conservative construction industry and the lack of regulatory standards for structural materials.

Keegan is an entrepreneur, public speaker, consultant, and engineer all rolled into one. He was passionate about being an astronaut when he grew up and has worked on rockets and satellites in his career. As the founder of RedWorks, he brings technology made for Mars back to Earth. RedWorks uses patented technology to make masonry using the dirt at the construction site, thereby reducing greenhouse emissions. Keegan is also a strategic advisor at Spira and a partner at Space Advisors.
