We help YOU build with optimized climate-neutral materials.
ecoLocked Materials® are CO2-negative concrete admixes and additives
ecoLocked Materials consist of a range of carbonaceous admix and additives, optimized for improving the environmental and mechanical properties of concrete. By using them, you store captured carbon in concrete and make up for the embodied emissions from conventional ingredients like cement and sand.
As a result, you can reduce the concrete’s CO2-footprint without compromising on performance.
What do we offer?
Our turnkey solution provides all the tools required for you to achieve your sustainability goals.
“Drop-in” solution for smooth integration
Mix design & technical consulting
Carbon management services
Technology
Our technology is suitable for most concrete applications. Each biochar, sourced from different biomass residues, possesses unique chemical and mechanical characteristics. At ecoLocked, we carefully select the most suitable biochar for a specific concrete application. This we then refine and process to develop the optimal biochar-based admixes and additives. Next to our own concrete lab and proprietary processing methodology, we have developed our data-driven product development platform to speed up the process. ecoLocked Platform features a proprietary database and a mix-design calculator that connects building material performance with various biochars and other decarbonization technologies.
We evaluate your needs and deliver an optimized concrete mix design with ecoLocked Materials.
Atmospheric Carbon Storage
Increased capacity to store atmospheric carbon, during initial curing and over the concrete’s lifetime
Weight reduction
Creating lightweight concrete while maintaining strength
Improved durability
Lower maintenance and longer building lifetimes thanks to resilience to, e.g., frost
Increased thermal insulation
Reduced need for other materials for thermal and noise insulation
Accelerated or delayed curing
Speed up the curing for precast concrete, slow it down for ready-mix concrete
Pigmentation
A natural darker hue to the concrete without additional pigments
Pavers
Our first commercial product. We have successfully produced carbon-neutral paving stones at multiple customer plants with a performance that meets the industry standard.
Precast elements
ecoLocked Materials® can be used to produce various precast elements right at the factory. We have already created multiple custom mix designs for our customers’ end applications.
Ready-mixed Concrete
Our product for RMC can be mixed on-site without any changes in the process. We already support any non-structural RMC applications.
