Irving Materials, Inc., a concrete and materials provider, has adopted the CarbonCure CO2 Recycling Technology in 15 of its ready-mix concrete plants across Indiana, Kentucky, and Tennessee.
On average, every cubic yard of concrete made by imi Concrete with the CarbonCure Technology will save 25 pounds of carbon dioxide (CO2), reducing the carbon footprint of concrete.
The CarbonCure Technology works by injecting recycled post-industrial CO2 into concrete during the manufacturing process. The CO2 undergoes a mineralisation process that enhances the concrete’s compressive strength, enabling concrete producers to optimise concrete mixes without compromising the concrete’s quality or impacting its price.
“We are proud and humbled to provide the high-quality concrete products that make up the structural backbone of our communities. imi Concrete has been at the forefront of concrete innovation, including the development of the front discharge concrete mixer that is now an industry staple,” said Bob Haldrup, imi North Division President.
