CARBONCURE CMU

Who knew that building with block could be like planting trees?

CarbonCure takes waste CO2 from other industries and introduces it into wet concrete. The CO2 reacts with ingredients inside the concrete and forms solid limestone, which becomes embedded throughout the concrete masonry unit to make affordable greener concrete masonry units.

Every 1,000 concrete block saves 20-30 lbs CO2. The concrete masonry used in a typical school can save as much CO2 as an acre of trees would sequester in a year.
