THE FUTURE OF
THE HUMAN HABITAT
Zero-carbon building materials for
the next generation of construction.
WHAT GOT US HERE CAN TAKE US NO FURTHER
As our population rapidly expands, the demand for building materials is soaring. Traditional Cement & Concrete, cannot support this growth sustainably.
Existing production processes have not significantly changed in the past 200 years. Concrete is the second most consumed material on Earth and is generated in a complex and polluting process using massive quarries and energy intensive kilns all over the planet.
Cement has altered the climate.
4 billion tons
of cement produced every year
7.5%
of global CO2e
10%
of industrial water
10%
of industrial energy
HARNESSING LIFE FORMS THAT BUILD MOUNTAINS
We create a biogenic cement replacement using natural biomineralization and cementation processes, similar to those that made the sedimentary carbonate formations in our mountains.
Leveraging the power of microscopic life, we replace the old, unsustainable methods, and in doing so, unlock a circular economy that puts industrial byproducts to use.
BUILT DIFFERENT.
GOOD FOR THE PLANET, GREAT FOR BUSINESS
Starstone is a game changer for the entire construction value chain.
With true low-carbon cement & concrete, producers and builders can offer a viable solution to the growing need for cement & concrete minus the environmental impact.
Partial / stand-alone cement replacement
Reducing dependency on quarries, kilns, and mills with on-site production.
>50% Carbon Reduction
Total supply chain emissions reduction for our low-carbon product.
Flexible Scaling
Easy to scale production up or down to meet demand.
Universal material
Fits all common concrete use cases.
Cost Parity
Meets traditional cement operational costs at scale.
