New Zealand: Neocrete has launched an investment round to raise over US$1.86m in funding. The start-up will use the funds to build an industrial-scale plant for its Neocrete activator for pozzolan-based concrete. The use of Neocrete's activator can eliminate up to 50% of cement in concrete. Neocrete aims to ultimately displace 100% of concrete's cement content. The Hawke's Bay Today newspaper has reported that pozzolan-based concrete made using Neocrete's additive offers resilience benefits compared to conventional ordinary Portland cement (OPC)-based concrete. It is especially suited construction in seawater-exposed settings.
