We Empower Your Real Estate Projects with Low Carbon, Circular, and Healthy Building Materials and Transform Mineral Construction Waste into Valuable Resources and Products: Dr. Thibault Demoulin, Co-Founder of Oxara

Oxara tackles key challenges in the construction industry, including resource scarcity, high CO2 emissions from cement production, and the rising global need for affordable housing. In addition, billions of tons of excavation materials are sent to landfills every year, taking up valuable space and contributing to environmental degradation. Oxara has developed an innovative solution that utilizes locally available landfill waste, particularly excavation materials, to create a new form of concrete called poured earth concrete. This concrete is designed to be a sustainable, cost-effective alternative to traditional cement-based concrete.

Oxara’s cement-free concrete technology eliminates the need for cement, a key contributor to CO2 emissions in the construction industry. This technology enables excavation materials to be cast in their fresh state using standard concrete infrastructure, simplifying the construction process. Oxara also accelerates the hardening process of its poured earth concrete, allowing formwork to be removed within 24 hours, which helps keep construction timelines efficient while reducing environmental impact.

The poured earth concrete developed by Oxara is not only more eco-friendly but also more cost-effective than traditional concrete. This is largely due to the use of locally sourced excavation materials, which lowers the overall cost of production and reduces the environmental impact associated with transporting raw materials. The concrete is 90% more eco-friendly than conventional concrete, offering a major advantage in the construction industry, which is often criticized for its significant carbon footprint. As demand for affordable housing continues to rise globally, Oxara’s solution provides a way to meet that need without depleting the planet’s resources or increasing waste.

When industrialized, Oxara’s poured earth concrete has the potential to transform the construction sector by offering a sustainable alternative that reduces CO2 emissions, construction waste, and the consumption of natural resources like sand. The technology could be particularly valuable in addressing the global shortage of affordable housing, as it provides a cost-effective and environmentally friendly solution that is competitive with traditional concrete. By utilizing waste materials that would otherwise be discarded, Oxara is also helping to mitigate the environmental problems caused by the construction industry.

The benefits of Oxara’s technology extend beyond cost savings. By reducing the need for cement, Oxara’s poured earth concrete can play a significant role in reducing global CO2 emissions, which are largely driven by cement production. The use of locally sourced excavation materials not only conserves resources but also reduces the need for transporting raw materials, further cutting down on the carbon footprint associated with construction projects. This makes Oxara’s solution an important part of the push toward sustainability in the construction sector.

Oxara’s innovation is positioned to become a key player in the future of green building practices. As cities and governments around the world set more ambitious environmental targets and prioritize sustainable development, the demand for eco-friendly construction materials is growing. Oxara’s poured earth concrete aligns with these goals by offering a more sustainable and cost-effective alternative to traditional concrete. By tapping into the potential of landfill waste, Oxara is helping to reduce the environmental impact of construction while also providing a viable solution to the challenges faced by the industry.

In addition to its environmental benefits, Oxara’s technology also addresses the growing demand for affordable housing. By offering a more affordable alternative to traditional concrete, Oxara’s poured earth concrete makes it easier for developers to build affordable homes without compromising on quality or durability. This is particularly important in regions where affordable housing is in high demand, as it allows for faster and more cost-effective construction of homes and infrastructure.

As Oxara’s cement-free concrete technology continues to evolve, it could become an essential tool in the transformation of the construction industry. The company’s innovative approach to using excavation waste as a building material could help to solve multiple global challenges, including the shortage of affordable housing, the overuse of natural resources, and the need to reduce CO2 emissions. Oxara’s poured earth concrete represents a forward-thinking solution to these problems and offers a promising path toward a more sustainable and resource-efficient future for construction.

Oxara is not just developing a new type of concrete; the company is creating a model for sustainable construction that can be scaled globally. As the construction industry increasingly turns to greener solutions, Oxara’s poured earth concrete technology is well-positioned to become a key player in the future of building materials. With its focus on sustainability, cost-effectiveness, and environmental impact, Oxara is helping to reshape the way construction is done, offering a concrete solution to some of the industry's most pressing challenges.
