Take a Look at Our Impact to Date
What is CarbonCure™?
CarbonCure is pioneering sustainability in the concrete industry. Their technology allows designers, developers, builders and suppliers the opportunity to reduce the carbon footprint in the use of concrete products without compromising the concrete strength and quality.
CarbonCure’s technology injects recycled carbon dioxide (CO2) into our concrete mixes just like an admixture. The CO2 is captured from industrial emitters, purified and liquefied, and then introduced to the fresh concrete, where it chemically converts to a mineral. This process, known as CO2 mineralization, improves compressive strength, which will enable us to reduce cement content of our mixes without sacrificing strength or impacting performance. This results in the same reliable concrete we always provide, but with a lower carbon footprint.
CarbonCure enables the production of the same reliable concrete, with a reduced carbon footprint using captured carbon dioxide. Every cubic yard of our concrete made with CarbonCure saves an average of 25 pounds of carbon dioxide emissions from the atmosphere. To learn more, watch this video or visit carboncure.com.*

How is C02 sourced?
Waste CO2 emissions are collected from local industrial emitters by gas companies and then purified and distributed.
Will CarbonCure affect the finished look of the concrete?
No, injecting CO2 into the concrete using CarbonCure will not affect the concrete color, finish or texture.
Can CarbonCure be used on commercial and residential projects?
CarbonCure can be used on projects of any size. Duke City Redi Mix has CarbonCure technology at our Albuquerque plant. For more information or to get a quote, call us at 505-877-5777.
