Fortera’s low-carbon cement technology utilizes a proprietary blend of materials that reduces the amount of cement needed for a given project, thereby lowering the overall carbon footprint. This technology is designed to be compatible with existing infrastructure, allowing for seamless integration and minimal disruption to construction projects. The company’s approach to low-carbon cement production is based on three key pillars:

1. **Material Innovation:** Fortera’s proprietary blend of materials reduces the amount of cement needed for a given project, leading to a significant reduction in carbon emissions. This innovation is achieved through the use of alternative materials like fly ash, slag, and recycled aggregates. 2.

**Fortera’s ReCarb process:**

* **Capture of industrial CO2 emissions:** The process captures CO2 emissions from the industrial processes of cement manufacturing plants. This includes emissions from the kiln, the raw material preparation, and the clinkerization process. * **Conversion to mineral form:** The captured CO2 is then converted into a mineral form, such as calcium carbonate, which is a key component of cement.

Fortera’s ReAct cement is a game-changer in the construction industry. It offers several key advantages:
