Marine life can grow on traditional concrete as well, why is ECOncrete different?
Traditional infrastructures ignore the lifestyles of their marine neighbors with design features that lead to low-biodiversity, and a higher ratio of invasive species. ECOncrete’s technology redesigns these three features, building the foundation for resilient marine ecosystems.
Is ECOncrete carbon neutral?
ECOncrete’s admixture is 92% carbon neutral. Admix used in combination with slag cement and fly ash results in a carbon footprint that’s up to 70% lower than traditional mixes. After installation, calcitic organisms grow and absorb CO₂, storing 300 grams of CO₂ per m², per year.
How does ECOncrete® increase reduce project maintenance?
ECOncrete’s patented admix creates a crystalline structure that strengthens the concrete and seals it. Species like barnacles and corals encrust the concrete, creating a defensive layer that further buffers hydrodynamic and chemical forces and increases longevity of the unit.
Can ECOncrete be applied to custom infrastructure designs or solutions?
Whether you’re building a breakwater or a bridge base, if it’s in the ocean, ECOncrete’s technologies can be applied. Ports, offshore asset owners, and state parks have integrated ECOncrete’s technology into tailored solutions. Let’s talk about your project’s needs.
