Who We are ?
About UPSA
UPSA was formed in May 2023 with core teams in Australia and UK and is the licensed owner, excavator and marketer of resource in a 99-year Section Lease purchased from Claystone International Pty NSW, Australia. UPSA Section Lease has CPR proven deposits of Pozzolanic Silica Alumina Sand (Volcanic Ash) of 250M tonnes @ 70m depth. The use of Volcanic Ash as a super-binding additive in concrete-mixing process has been known for 2 millennia as countless Roman structures, still standing, will testify.
In a world committed to reduction of carbon emissions the search is on for ways that enable the Construction industry to address its failings in the built environment and “greening concrete” is a major goal. Concrete Manufacturing is estimated to contribute up to 8% to annual C02 emissions. PSA will enable Governments and Developers to build strong and durable structures that last for centuries not decades. UPSA will excavate Pozzolanic Sand to order for those clients seeking to make a genuine difference in the construction process.
Universal Pozzolanic Silica Alumina Ltd (UPSA) is a UK registered company.

Sustainable Future
As hundreds of surviving structures built during the Roman Empire attest, volcanic ash remains the key super-binding additive in concrete mixing. The time-honoured production process can now be replicated by USPA Inc., which has a vast inventory of Natural Pozzolana Sand.
The result is concrete that is stronger, less expensive to produce and far less harmful to the environment.

Whether a seaside retaining wall, aqueduct or buildings such as the Pantheon, concrete structures built during the Roman Empire have withstood the test of time, many of them still functioning today.
