EDILTECO BRINGS SUSTAINABLE CONCRETE IN ITALY AND IN EUROPE THANKS TO THE COLLABORATION WITH CARBONCURE TECHNOLOGIES

San Felice sul Panaro (MO) — Edilteco (www.ediltecogreen.it) becomes the exclusive Distributor of CarbonCure Technologies, a Canadian company that deals with the removal of carbon dioxide, and introduces this innovative technology in Europe.

“Our team is glad to introduce CarbonCure to our customers. Thanks to CarbonCure, Edilteco offers innovative solutions aimed at reducing the carbon footprint in the concrete industry” Paolo Stabellini, Edilteco’s CEO recalls.

CarbonCure technology allows concrete manufacturers to add carbon dioxide (CO₂), coming from industrial emissions, in the mixing with fresh concrete. Once injected, the CO₂ undergoes a mineralization process and becomes permanently embedded, improving the concrete compressive strength.

For concrete manufacturers, this allows to safely reduce the cement content in their formula. In this way, architects, engineers, builders and contractors obtain the same reliable and high performing quality of concrete, but with a reduced carbon footprint.

“Italy represents a key market for the expansion of CarbonCure in Europe. This collaboration with Edilteco allows to accelerate our development, that aim at reaching our mission: reducing the carbon dioxide emissions from construction industry, of 500 millions of tons per year, within 2030” recalls Chad Mahoney, Territory Manager of CarbonCure Technologies.

CarbonCure technology removes from the environment an average of 12 kg of carbon dioxide per m³ of concrete.

“Edilteco has always taken care of energy saving and sustainability. This is our mission since the company foundation. The new Green range, which includes products containing up to 90% of regenerated EPS, is a further step in this direction. Today, together with CarbonCure, we have the possibility to offer something more to the concrete batching plants, that work with us from many years: same quality as always, but with a lower carbon footprint” , Emanuele Stabellini, Ediltecos’ Marketing Manager writes.
