Your window into Canada’s carbon removal sector

Company bio

alterBiota is a concrete technologies company focused on cost effective modernization and decarbonization of concrete.

Concrete is one of the most ubiquitous materials on earth making the industry as a whole extremely carbon-intensive. Through an innovative and highly scalable approach we make a natural admixture called deltaC (∆C) that is easy to use – just like other liquid admixtures – and improves the fresh properties concrete. ∆C is also a micro filler material that enhances compressive strength and enables concrete producers to use less carbon-intensive cement while facilitating storage of biogenic carbon in concrete infrastructure.

Unlike other concrete decarbonization technologies, ∆C is a scalable, drop in decarbonization solution that can achieve 30% reduction in embodied carbon and be implemented without a hefty green premium. Also, concrete producers and their customers retain all environmental attributes.

With alterBiota, concrete producers and their customers reduce their carbon footprints and we all benefit from more sustainable growth.
