Welcome to the Net-Zero Materials (NZM) Lab
At the Net Zero Materials (NZM) Lab, our mission is to lead the transformation of construction materials towards a sustainable, low-carbon future. Our interdisciplinary team of researchers is committed to developing innovative solutions that reduce carbon emissions, repurpose industrial byproducts, and pave the way for a new era of sustainable building technologies.
"Think big, start small, and scale smart!"
About Us
Our work spans a wide range of innovative approaches, from developing low-carbon concrete technologies to exploring sustainable materials and advanced curing methods. By leveraging cutting-edge science and engineering, we seek to create scalable, eco-friendly alternatives that significantly reduce the carbon footprint of the construction sector, which contributes nearly 8% of global CO2 emissions.
At the nZM Lab, we are committed to rethinking traditional construction practices, integrating sustainable methods, and developing materials that are not only durable and high-performing but also environmentally responsible. Our research encompasses the entire construction lifecycle, focusing on solutions that can be rapidly implemented in real-world applications to accelerate the transition to a net-zero future.
