CarbonCure

Carbon Mineralization for Low-Carbon Concrete

Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada

Highlight

Permanently stores captured CO2 inside concrete while reducing the cement needed to make it.

Extended description

CarbonCure has developed a carbon-mineralisation technology that injects captured CO2 into fresh concrete during production. The CO2 reacts with calcium ions to form stable minerals permanently embedded in the concrete, improving performance and letting producers use less cement. The solution lowers the carbon footprint of concrete without changing conventional manufacturing, making it easy to adopt at scale in one of the world's most carbon-intensive industries.
