Cement demand will double by 2060, but its key materials face shortages, instability & high emissions. Carbon Upcycling is future-proofing infrastructure with carbon-capture tech that: Strengthens local supply chains, improves early strength & climate resiliency, cuts emissions up to 60%

Some see waste. We see opportunity. By turning waste into a cement material that’s less carbon-intensive, and even stronger than conventional cement, Carbon Upcycling is driving a circular economy ♻️

Today is a day of remembrance & reflection. We acknowledge that reconciliation begins with truth. It requires listening to Indigenous voices, recognizing histories, & committing to change in the present. We pause to reflect, to learn, & to honour the resilience of Indigenous People across Canada.

The future of cement is cleaner, smarter, and circular. With Ash Grove, we’re delivering North America’s first commercial-scale carbon utilization facility—turning industrial byproducts and CO₂ into low-carbon cement materials and setting a new benchmark for the industry.

We’re building Carbon 1 Mississauga, our first integrated carbon capture and utilization facility with Ash Grove. This plant will upcycle local byproducts into low-carbon cement, cutting emissions and strengthening supply chains across Ontario.

We’ve broken ground on Canada’s first commercial carbon capture and utilization facility with Ash Grove. This milestone proves what’s possible when innovation meets collaboration—and it’s only the beginning of a cleaner, smarter cement future.

A new chapter in low-carbon cement has begun. Carbon 1 Mississauga, a Canadian first-of-its-kind commercial carbon capture and utilization facility with Ash Grove, sets a new benchmark for building resilient supply chains, reducing carbon emissions, and demonstrating Canadian technology leadership.
