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. Concrete, as we know it, cannot support this growth sustainably.

The concrete creation process has not significantly changed for over 9,000 years. It 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.

Concrete has altered the climate.

HARNESSING LIFE FORMS THAT BUILD MOUNTAINS

We create Concrete Zero 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.

CONCRETE

CREATING CONCRETE ZERO

Instead of quarries, lorries, kilns and mills, our harmless microscopic life forms carry out controlled fermentation in unique tanks near the build site.

Innovating upon the bioengineering technology used to make cheese, wine, bread, and antibiotics, we trigger the rapid growth of carbonate crystals, like those in limestone. 

After mixing this calcium-rich solution with sand and aggregates we form, cure, and compress the concrete; The same way geological rock is compacted, only faster.

Avoiding the current high-emissions value chain and hundreds of kilometers of transport.

Reusing & Recycling

During every stage of production, we incorporate byproducts and waste from industry and agriculture. These include unrecyclable plastics, construction and demolition waste, and grain processing byproducts.

THE RESULT IS

CONCRETE ZERO.

The structural performance and aesthetic elegance of the
materials you know, minus the environmental impact.

GOOD FOR THE PLANET, GREAT FOR BUSINESS 

Starstone is a game changer for the entire construction value chain.

With drastically reduced costs and true zero-carbon concrete, producers, designers, and builders obtain a competitive advantage.

Simplified Operations

Reducing dependency on quarries, kilns, and mills with on-site production.

100% Carbon Reduction

Total supply chain emissions reduction for a zero-carbon product.

Flexible Scaling

Easy to scale production up or down to meet demand.

Cost Parity

Meets traditional concrete‘s operational costs at scale.

 

 VISIONARY TEAM
