Patricia Billings was a woman who invented a fire resistant building material known as Geobond. Fire resistant material is very important obviously because it saves lives, prevents the fire from spreading, and in extreme cases, may have prevented the world trade centers from collapsing if applied properly depending on what conspiracy theory you look at.
Billings was a sculpture artist, and for two decades spent her life perfecting plastures to prevent her scultures from falling apart. Finally she came across a mixture of gypsum and concrete which is not only indestructable, but also amazingly fire resistant. Geobond is made with non-toxic ingredients which makes it an ideal replacement for asbestos.
Geobond is now being sold in more than 20 different markets world wide, as it is being integrated more and more into construction today as an ideal fire resistant plasture. Thanks to Patricia, buildings can be a safer place to reside.
