These collaborations aim to integrate CoolCrete technology into commercial and residential architectural designs.  

A functional supplementary cementitious material, CoolCrete is expected to cut the carbon footprint of concrete by up to 40% by substituting a portion of traditional cement with a more sustainable option. 

Its properties enhance solar reflectance and thermal emittance, leading to a cooling effect of up to 10°C at peak temperatures. 

This could significantly reduce energy consumption related to cooling.

Carbon Limit stated that the development of CoolCrete comes at a critical time, as record-breaking heat waves and escalating electricity costs underscore the urgency of addressing climate change and its impact on urban environments. 

Carbon Limit CEO and founder Tim Sperry said: “Heat-related deaths have doubled in recent decades, exceeding 2,300 deaths in 2023 alone, a figure that is expected to grow as record high temperatures become the norm. 

“Our families and children deserve better, which is the true intent behind solutions like CoolCrete that not only keep our families safe, but ensure future generations can enjoy the outdoors as we once did.” 

NCP and Bison, known for their building commodities, are incorporating CoolCrete into their product lines.  

These new editions are expected to hit the market by late 2024, offering a climate change solution to a broad audience, from DIY enthusiasts to professional architects. 

Carbon Limit plans to expand CoolCrete licensing opportunities in early 2025, continuing to explore different applications for this technology.
