Upcycled Carbon Floor Tiles
CarbonCraft Design is Making Sustainable Floor Tiles for India
Colin Smith — October 25, 2024CarbonCraft Design, a Bangalore-based design and material innovation company, has developed a unique technique to create tiles using upcycled carbon. The process begins with the collection of carbon black and industrial waste, which is then processed and combined with natural materials like marble derivatives to form the tiles. This innovative approach not only repurposes waste but also helps mitigate air pollution by capturing carbon emissions that would otherwise contribute to environmental degradation.
The tiles produced by CarbonCraft India are handcrafted and designed to reflect contemporary aesthetics while promoting sustainability. Each tile is made through a meticulous process that includes cutting, shaping, joining, filling, and forming, ensuring high quality and durability. By utilizing recovered carbon, the company aims to create eco-friendly building materials that contribute to a circular economy and reduce the carbon footprint of construction projects.
CarbonCraft Design's commitment to sustainability is evident in its efforts to address air pollution and promote responsible material usage. The company collaborates with carbon capture and collection partners to source recovered carbon, which is then transformed into high-grade upcycled products. This approach not only prevents the burning of carbon waste but also provides a sustainable solution for the construction industry, making it a significant player in the movement towards greener building practices.
