About CarbonBuilt

CarbonBuilt is building deeply decarbonized concrete manufacturing of the future. Through our proprietary low-carbon concrete technology, focus on data analytics and robotics, and active acquisition of concrete masonry plants, we are scaling solutions that dramatically reduce embodied carbon while also reducing costs. Rooted in science, CarbonBuilt was established after years of Department of Energy-backed research at UCLA’s Institute for Carbon Management.
