Good luck! Sustainable cement and concrete production is needed now more than ever. Many people do not realize that the [1] cement industry is one of the main producers of carbon dioxide greenhouse gas emissions. [1] https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Environmental_impact_of_conc...
Looks great, good luck! Question about the seawater aspect, are ecological impacts similar to conventional desalination processes?
Sounds promising! I have noticed companies with environmental impact have disproportionately more success in crowd-funding. Many non-institutional investors (like myself) put their money in ideas that are good for the world - almost like charity. Perhaps you will consider raising funds and spreading the word using a crowd-funding site such as https://www.startengine.com/explore
Curious about the name, my immediate thought (and interest making me click in) was that it sounds Norwegian. Any connection? I really like the idea. One thing I'm curious about is what's in it for the contractors (edit: cement producers) buying from you instead of others? I get the environmental impact, but my guess is they only care if touches their bottom line. Will it be cheaper, either in raw price or because of…
Just curious: at what point does concrete release C02? In a particular part of the manufacturing process? Or throughout the process?

I have to imagine global temperatures are affected by the reflection of cement quite a bit. Blacktop certainly returns heat into the air, as do roofs, but I would guess so does most cement -- why does no one talk about it? Soil aborbs, plants absorb, solid cement reflects, no?
