How Sublime Is Decarbonizing Cement

We live in over 10 cement plants over 20 ready mix concrete plants. We're making revenues that qualified us for a series a funding round. Five of our customers are launching this concrete with 50% less CO2 emissions all across Germany. Berlin's high skyscraper was built out of that concrete last August. So yeah, there's both traction in terms of software adoption and revenues. Even more importantly, low carbon concrete being shipped and poured and landing in important construction projects.

I've essentially thought of the pathways to decarbonize cement very bluntly on two main pathways. One is new ways of producing. So we've had on the podcast before a company like Sublime that is using electrochemistry instead of heat to try to crack the lime and actually create the cement. And then the alternate is basically new mixologies, new ingredients going in. You're opening my eyes to a third path, which is just increasing efficiency is what I'm hearing from you. Exactly.

It's almost boring, but it's actually incredible. That's why we're called alchemy because the iconists tried to make gold out of lead. And that's essentially what we're trying to do here make much more out of the

same. What can you share in terms of traction to

date? We live in over 10 cement plants over 20 ready mix concrete plants. We're making revenues that qualified us for a series a funding round. And most importantly, this cementing the result in concrete with 50% less carbon emissions is being used at mass scale already here in Germany, which is of course making us the most proud. And five of our customers are launching this concrete with 50% less CO2 emissions all across Germany. We have many real estate projects interested in that. As I said, Berlin's high skyscraper was built out of that concrete last August. So yeah, there's both traction in terms of software adoption and revenues. But for us, even more importantly, low carbon concrete being shipped and poured and landing in important construction projects.
