Solidia Technologies can reduce carbon dioxide emissions in construction and building materials

Solidia Technologies CEO Tom Schuler presented Cleantech investors the opportunity to reduce carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions in construction and building materials up to 70 percent today during the Jefferies 2013 Global Industrials Conference.

Solidia was featured as a rising technology at the conference's new kick-off day, dedicated entirely to Clean Technology companies. The annual global gathering draws institutional and private equity investors, venture capitalists and industry experts seeking investment opportunities in the Industrials and other sectors.

A 2013 R&D Top 100 Award winner now in commercialization, Solidia's disruptive technology has the potential to deliver profitable, game-changing solutions across the globe by producing a stronger and more durable concrete that costs less, uses less time, energy and water, with the same raw materials and equipment. Combined, Solidia Cement and Solidia Concrete reduce the carbon footprint of concrete products up to 70 percent, offering the global construction industry a profitable path to sustainability.

"We have taken a complex technology and made it simple, not only to ease adoption, but also to provide the construction and building materials industries a competitive edge, with cost savings, superior performance, and an enhanced sustainability profile," said Schuler.

 

For over 50 years, scientists have tried to cure concrete with CO2 knowing the resultant product would be stronger and more stable. Solidia is the first to make this commercially viable. Its patented technology sequesters CO2 by injecting it into concrete during manufacturing, turning CO2 into a usable element at significantly reduced time and cost for large- and small-scale production.

Solidia is pursuing the application of its technology in the $1 trillion global concrete and $300 billion global cement markets. Already the second most utilized substance in the world after water, demand for concrete is rising in step with global urbanization. Cement, the binding element in concrete, is the world's second largest emitter of greenhouse gas, responsible for approximately five to seven percent of global emissions.
