As the new year begins, Xeriant (OTCQB: XERI) stands at a pivotal moment in its development as a holding and operating company focused on advanced materials and emerging technologies. With progress in its flagship composite materials project, strategic leadership growth and an expanding innovation ecosystem, Xeriant’s trajectory highlights both the challenges and opportunities inherent in bringing early-stage technologies toward commercialization.
Xeriant describes itself as a holding and operating entity dedicated to the discovery, development and commercialization of advanced materials and transformative technologies with applications across industrial markets, including construction, aerospace and infrastructure. Its portfolio is built through a combination of internal development, strategic partnerships and targeted technology acquisitions.
A central focus for Xeriant entering 2026 is its advanced materials program, most visibly represented by NEXBOARD(TM), a patent-pending composite construction panel marketed under the DUREVER(TM) brand. NEXBOARD is engineered from recycled plastic and cellulose waste materials and enhanced with proprietary nanotechnology-based flame retardants, aiming to offer an ecofriendly, high-performance alternative to traditional construction materials such as drywall, plywood, oriented strand board (“OSB”) and medium-density fiberboard (“MDF”).
NEXBOARD combines exceptional strength, fire resistance and water, mold and insect resistance, along with insulating properties that can help improve energy efficiency and long-term durability. The material is intended to be available in standard panel sizes and thicknesses tailored to residential and commercial building requirements, and is described as not requiring priming or sealing before finishing.
Throughout 2025, Xeriant achieved several technical and production milestones for NEXBOARD as it moved closer to commercialization. Late in the year, the company conducted limited production runs aimed at quality control and certification readiness, including completing an August production run of panels and initiating formal certification processes with a September run observed by third-party representatives. These steps followed earlier internal fire and performance testing designed to validate the material’s nanotechnology flame-retardant properties. Progress in the advanced materials line has been reflected in recent company communications, which note that NEXBOARD’s development is approaching the point where certification — a critical requirement for broad market acceptance — could unlock commercial deployment opportunities.
In addition to materials development, Xeriant is cultivating an innovation ecosystem under what it calls the Factor X Research Group, an internal hub designed to accelerate technology discovery and commercialization across a range of high-impact fields. Factor X blends cross-disciplinary research, strategic guidance and operational support, focusing on advanced materials, aerospace technologies, nanotechnology, artificial intelligence and infrastructure solutions. Leadership for this effort includes Brigadier General (Ret.) Blaine D. Holt, whose appointment to guide Factor X reflects the company’s desire to integrate strategic vision and disciplined innovation execution.
Factor X is frequently described in commentary as akin to a Skunk works-style research engine, intended to compress development cycles and bring transformative technologies from concept to implementation more rapidly than traditional corporate structures might allow. This emphasis on strategic acceleration positions Xeriant to pursue diversified opportunities while managing risk and maintaining flexibility.
Looking ahead, Xeriant has a clarified strategic focus, technical momentum in its advanced materials program and a growing innovation platform designed to accelerate transformational technologies. The company’s progress in NEXBOARD development, leadership expansion and broader ecosystem positioning underscores a commitment to bridging early-stage research and commercial applications, a trajectory that will be closely watched by investors and industry observers alike as the company progressed.
