NeoCarbon and Carbonaide partner to enable captured carbon to be stored in concrete

NeoCarbon, a leading developer of Direct AirCapture (DAC) technology, and Carbonaide, a pioneer in carbonisation technology for the production of precast concrete, announced a partnership to efficiently capture CO₂ from the atmosphere and permanently store it in concrete. This will significantly reduce carbon emissions in the building and construction sector. The aim is to deliver high quality carbon removal credits, with the first delivery expected in 2025.

NeoCarbon’s DAC technology goes hand in handwith Carbonaide’s carbon capture process to create a scalable carbon capture value chain. By capturing CO₂ directly from the air, NeoCarbon provides a modular approach that enables faster access to CO₂. Carbonaide’s permanentstorage solution complements this by providing efficient carbon capture andutilisation. Together, they enable concrete producers to reduce their carbonfootprint by mineralising CO₂ in concrete.

Commenting on the partnership, NeoCarbon CEO René Haas said: “Together with Carbonaide, our goal is to address the urgent need for effective carbon capture solutions in the concrete industry. Bycombining NeoCarbon’s DAC technology with Carbonaide’s carbonisation expertiseand technology, we aim to transform concrete production into a carbon sink.”

“The cooperation with NeoCarbon allows usto move a significant step forward in transforming the fossil concreteproduction process to a more sustainable one. We are opening new possibilities for carbon capture and utilisation, paving the way for a more sustainable future for the construction industry,” said Tapio Vehmas, CEO of Carbonaide.

In addition, the partnership between NeoCarbonand Carbonaide provides a valuable deployment opportunity, particularly in Germany, where concrete producers are looking for solutions to reduce theircarbon footprint. The collaboration demonstrates the power of partnerships to drive innovation and sustainability.
