Cemex Ventures has released its highly anticipated 2024 Construction Cleantech Map, highlighting five pioneering companies across various verticals including Carbon Capture, Utilization & Storage (CCUS), Decarbonization Alternatives, Circularity & Waste Management, Water Efficiency, and Design & Architecture. This graphic, unveiled by the venture capital arm of Cemex S.A.B. de C.V., aims to spotlight startups and construction firms driving innovations to reduce carbon dioxide emissions in the industry.
Among the standout brands featured on the map are CRDC, a New Jersey-based company offering commercial solutions for concrete producers, specializing in recycled-plastic aggregate development. Additionally, Sublime Systems, headquartered in Massachusetts, stands out for its electrolysis process, providing a low-carbon alternative to traditional portland cement.
The 2024 Cleantech cohort is viewed as transformative, reshaping the construction technology ecosystem. Cemex Ventures’ team of investment specialists diligently scouts for the most disruptive technologies that not only reduce CO2 emissions but also promote a circular economy within the industry.
These efforts align closely with Future in Action, Cemex’s corporate sustainability program, which is committed to aggressive decarbonization goals across its global operations encompassing cement, concrete, and aggregates. Through initiatives like the Construction Cleantech Map, Cemex Ventures continues to drive forward innovation in the construction sector, pushing boundaries towards a more sustainable future.
