Solution should be durable in all weathers (incl. salt).

Market potential: The aim to reduce carbon dioxide emissions in the production of concrete slabs and paving stones is world wide. Northern Europe is a leading area for the environmental innovations in the production.

Timing: Solution should be ready within 5 years.

Desired result: As a result we hope to have new lower emission version of the product in production. The aim is to be carbon dioxide neutral or even to be even carbon sequestration (using more carbon dioxide in the production than producing).

Information on challenge owner: Small SME (10-49 staff).
