CarbonCure is concrete’s gateway to the green
reuses waste carbon dioxide during the
concrete manufacturing process. The company
also provides transparency tools such as
Environmental and Health Product Declarations
for all products made with CarbonCure.
Through collaboration with leading designers,
the company and its partners are supplying a
scalable solution to address the growing
demand for green building materials.
CarbonCure’s Role: The use of CarbonCure
concrete in a project may be considered for an
Innovation and Design credit. CarbonCure will
provide the project team with all the necessary
documentation required for the submission of
the Innovation and Design credit.
