Canadian Cleantech Firm Brings Carbon-Reducing Concrete Admixture to Market
alterBiota, a Canadian cleantech company focused on decarbonizing construction materials, has officially entered the commercialization phase for its flagship product, deltaC (∆C™)—a biochar-based liquid admixture that reduces the carbon footprint of concrete by up to 30% while improving its strength and workability.
