<aside> 💡 Paebbl, a Dutch-based startup, offers an innovative solution to the urgent challenge of decarbonizing the concrete industry, which is the most produced material on Earth and accounts for up to 8% of global greenhouse gas emissions.

The company's core technology mimics the natural process of COâ‚‚ turning into stone, accelerating it 10 million times through their proprietary technology and a controlled manufacturing process. This process produces high-performance "carbon-storing supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs)," which have already been adopted in real-world construction projects. Paebbl envisions a future where society's infrastructure development becomes an act of climate stabilization. They aim to permanently convert COâ‚‚ into "future-proof" construction materials, addressing the current reality of 50 billion tons of COâ‚‚ being released into the atmosphere annually.

Built on 20 years of academic research and recognizing that "speed matters," Paebbl has rapidly scaled up from gram-scale production to daily ton-scale production of carbon-storing materials in just 36 months. This swift business expansion is supported by a pilot plant that began operations in Rotterdam in November 2023, and the world's first continuous demo plant for COâ‚‚ mineralization, which has been operating since late March 2025. A commercial plant is also planned to be operational in 2027.

Through these initiatives, Paebbl aims to enable permanent and verifiable carbon storage in construction materials, making decarbonization economically viable. We wish the company, which has expanded rapidly in a short period, continued success in the future.
