Reformix presented work at Concrete 2025 – Concrete Solutions for a Sustainable Future, held in Adelaide from 7–10 September 2025. Our paper, “Optimising Geopolymer Activator Preparation: Thermophysical Insights from a Fly Ash Case Study Towards Process Standardisation” addressed a largely overlooked variable in geopolymer technology: Activator solution preparation. Many geopolymer studies adopt arbitrary 24-hour activator equilibration periods before mixing. Our thermophysic

In July 2025, Reformix presented at Geopolymer Camp 2025, hosted by the Geopolymer Institute (Institut Géopolymère) in Saint-Quentin, France.
