TECNALIA chosen to be Clean Aviation programme partner
NANOSEED offers a new high-performance additive that accelerates cement forging at a lower cost than current solutions and at equal performance. This allows the cement industry to produce the so called high-performance cements at a lower cost.
PROBLEM/OPPORTUNITY
One of the aspects that is becoming more relevant in the concrete market is cement forging speed. For example, in the prefabricated sector, halving the forging time would result in doubling production.
Similarly, hardening accelerators will become even more important in the coming years with the anticipated eruption of 3D printing technology.
Potential Market
- Prefabricated concrete and mortars. The consumption of cement hardening additives is estimated to be:
- Europe: 825.000 T of additive / year
- Spain: 35.000 T of additive / year
- NANOSEED can therefore be a business of over €M at the fifth year.
We offer
- TRL 7: Confirmed production at an industrial scale.
- Technology protected by 2 patent families in over 40 countries: EP2878585 and WO2016192745
- Technology appraised at €3M by external advisers
