Daphné de La Grandière, alongside Saint-Gobain Construction Chemicals colleagues, recently had an enlightening visit to CarbiCrete, an innovative portfolio company in Canada.

Highlights of the visit:

• Witnessed CarbiCrete's unique process of transforming steel industry byproducts into robust concrete blocks
• Explored synergies between CarbiCrete's technology and Saint-Gobain's expertise
• Engaged in dynamic discussions about scaling this eco-friendly construction solution

Insight: CarbiCrete's method not only reduces waste but also actively sequesters CO2 during the curing process, making it a negative-carbon technology.

We're impressed by the ingenuity and passion of the CarbiCrete team! Their work exemplifies how startups can drive significant change in traditional industries.
