Reliably Innovative
Vertua® is just as strong and durable as conventional concrete. With Vertua® Classic, you can reduce carbon emissions by 20%-30% without losing structural integrity. Get peace of mind knowing that you're reducing the carbon emissions for your project, not the strength of your concrete.
Seamlessly Sustainable
Through our innovative research and development, we’re able to reduce CO2 output with the use of supplementary cementitious materials like Fly Ash, Slag, and other pozzolans in combination with our proprietary chemical admixtures – without compromising performance.
Builds Well With Others
No special steps or processes are needed, so your team can begin using Vertua® immediately. Since Vertua® is built into the cement mixing process, it works well with any post-production carbon-capture product. Use them together to further reduce your carbon footprint and build a better future.
