Green revolution in the cement industry

Nobody could have imagined of creating building materials made of crop residues and industrial by-products. But GreenJams did it. The company have revolutionised the way building materials are being manufactured. Tarun Jami, the Founder of GreenJams, spent five years studying hempcrete academically to equip himself with the technical skills to create a carbon-negative product, and after a lot of trials and tribulations, he invented Agrocrete--a carbon-negative building material comprising of crop residues and a lime-based binder. While Agrocrete is a scientific anomaly, the most amazing aspect about it is that it augments farmers’ income, keeps the air clean, and generates rural employment. It is carbon-negative and helps reverse climate change too.

Cement production is a significant source of global carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. About 7-8% of global carbon emissions come from clinker manufacturing alone. So, what is the solution? GreenJams has an answer to this problem too. The company has come up with another innovative product called BINDR—a 100% upcycled product, that can help cement companies cut their carbon footprint by more than 80% when compared to regular Portland cement.
