Concretene, a nanomaterial technology firm, has secured €3.5 million in investment to bring its carbon-saving concrete admixture to market.
The investment will fund the development of the Concretene product – a graphene-enhanced admixture that reduces the carbon footprint of concrete.
Concretene is working with pre-cast manufacturer Roger Bullivant and cement giant Cemex on low-carbon cement formulations.
The product, developed by Concretene through graphene engineering innovation, delivers significant compressive strength uplifts and reduces CO2 emissions by around 10-15%.
