Happy Earth Day! 💚🌍♻️ At CarbiCrete, we're proud to contribute to the global fight against rising emissions and #climatechange. We're helping to reduce the #carbonfootprint of #concrete, the most-used manmade material on #Earth, with our #innovative cement-free technology. #Cement is concrete's traditional binding agent. Though it only makes up about 10-15% of the concrete mix, it is responsible for nearly 90% of concrete's associated #emissions. The CarbiCrete process enables a 100% replacement of cement with steel slag, an #industrial byproduct. This can reduce concrete's #embodiedcarbon emissions while valorizing #waste and contributing to the #circulareconomy. In the CarbiCrete process, concrete products are cured with #carbondioxide in a specialized chamber. This #carbonmineralization further lowers the #environmentalimpact of the blocks and permanently removes emissions from the atmosphere by trapping them in a valuable #product through #carbondioxideremoval. Utilizing CarbiCrete #technology can ultimately reduce the embodied #carbon levels of concrete #masonry units by over 100% compared to conventional cement-based processes. This #EarthDay, learn more about CarbiCrete's groundbreaking #innovation and its contribution to global #sustainability: https://lnkd.in/eX6sRpwN #climatetech #environment #EarthDay2024
About us
CarbiCrete is a Montreal-based carbon removal technology company whose patented technology enables the production of cement-free, carbon-negative concrete made with industrial by-products and captured carbon dioxide. For every ton of concrete produced using the CarbiCrete process, 150 kg of CO2 are abated/removed. Conventional concrete is made with cement, the production of which accounts for nearly 10% of the world’s CO2 emissions! We’ve replaced cement in the mix with steel slag, industrial waste that is far cheaper than cement. Using carbonation activation, CO2 is injected into the wet concrete to give it its strength. Because we capture and permanently sequester CO2 in the concrete, these products are carbon-negative. Our patented technology can be implemented in any concrete products plant.

Chez CarbiCrete, chaque année présente de nouvelles opportunités de croissance, de nouveaux défis à relever et de nouvelles étapes à célébrer. 2024 a été l'une des années les plus fructueuses pour CarbiCrete ! Nous avons publié notre toute première déclaration environnementale de produit, augmenté la capacité de production de notre partenaire manufacturier, élargi notre gamme de produits, signé un nouveau client en Ontario et établi des partenariats commerciaux clés pour la production, la vente de produits et le financement carbone. L'année écoulée a montré que la nécessité d'une décarbonisation industrielle profonde est plus urgente que jamais. Alors que nous célébrons la fin d'année et que nous attendons avec joie la nouvelle année, nous tenons à tous vous remercier d'avoir soutenu CarbiCrete dans sa mission de transformation de l'industrie du béton grâce à notre technologie sans ciment. Nous sommes très heureux de vous montrer ce que nous allons faire en 2025 ! Tous les membres de CarbiCrete vous souhaitent de bonnes fêtes de fin d'année.

At CarbiCrete, every year has presented new opportunities to grow, new challenges to face, and new milestones to celebrate. 2024 was one of CarbiCrete's most successful years yet! We released our very first Environmental Product Declaration, increased capacity at our production partner’s site and expanded our product portfolio, signed a new customer in Ontario, and secured key commercial partnerships for production, product offtake and carbon financing. This past year has shown that the need for deep industrial decarbonization is more urgent than ever. As we celebrate the holidays and look forward to the new year, we'd like to thank all of you for supporting CarbiCrete on our journey to transform the concrete industry with our cement-free technology. We can't wait to show you what's in store for 2025! Happy Holidays from all of us at CarbiCrete.

You've heard us discuss the trouble with cement-based #concrete: it's the most-used manmade material on Earth, but it's responsible for 8% of all annual GHG #emissions. That's a big problem we need to solve in order to reach #netzero goals. Luckily, low-carbon concrete #technology like CarbiCrete's 100% replacement of #cement with industrial byproduct steel slag and #carbon mineralization curing are helping us get closer to solving this hard-to-abate problem once and for all.
