While a building's emissions are generally viewed in terms of operational carbon, the materials that make up the structure actually account for the biggest share of its lifetime carbon footprint. Cement-based concrete can account for 50-85% of any given building's embodied carbon.
Cement-free CMUs are the solution. And they are available NOW.
Cement-free CMUs made with CarbiCrete technology not only avoid GHG emissions, but also permanently remove CO2 from the atmosphere – significantly reducing your project’s embodied carbon.
With every cement-free CMU that is laid, a project’s embodied carbon is reduced, helping us build a more sustainable future.
Lower embodied carbon with no compromise on performance
Our innovative manufacturing technology substitutes cement with steel slag, eliminating a highly polluting substance from the concrete mix, and replacing it with repurposed industrial waste.
