Future of Cement: Startup Showcase, Third Derivative | RMI
Cement remains essential to developing our world. Yet, it is responsible for ~7–8% of global emissions. Addressing this challenge requires rethinking both materials and processes from the ground up.
In this session, we’ll explore how waste streams, circularity, and carbon utilization are shaping the next generation of cement and concrete.
We’ll open with insights from Third Derivative’s Cement Decarbonization Thesis, followed by pitches from leading startups in the space:
• Cocoon Carbon: Repurposing steel waste into low-carbon cement materials
• Reclinker: Circular cement recycling using existing infrastructure
• Carbon Negative Solutions: CO₂-mineralized cement replacements
• Urban Mining : Waste glass as a durable cement substitute
If you're focused on construction, materials, or climate solutions in the built environment, this session is for you. Be sure to register via RMI's event page: https://rmi.tfaforms.net/236
