Carbon 1 Mississauga

Carbon Upcycling Technologies has broken ground on a carbon capture and utilization (CCU) facility in Alberta, Canada designed to convert captured CO₂ into value-added mineral and construction products using proprietary upcycling technology. The plant will capture CO₂ from industrial emission sources and integrate it into building materials and chemicals, preventing carbon from entering the atmosphere while creating commercial products that displace higher-emission alternatives. The project is backed by investment from CRH Ventures, the corporate venture arm of CRH plc, which aims to scale innovative carbon transformation solutions. The facility represents a strategic step toward commercial deployment of CCU processes, demonstrating Carbon Upcycling’s technology at industrial scale and establishing market pathways for CO₂-derived products. Start-up timing aligns with the company’s phased ramp-up strategy to meet growing demand for low-carbon construction inputs and other CO₂-utilized materials.
