Azollaventures
Overview
Sublime is advancing a breakthrough, clean, efficient, low-waste process for manufacturing cement, the essential ingredient in concrete. Replacing 200-year-old methods reliant on kilns running hotter than lava, our near-ambient-temperature, electrochemical technology manufactures industry-accepted cement and critical minerals. We are partnering with leading contractors, concrete producers, developers, and technology hyperscalers to deploy Sublime Cement in infrastructure that defines the future of clean construction. Supported by major cement producers, private investors, and the U.S. Department of Energy, we are building a talented, collaborative team dedicated to frontiers of material science, manufacturing, industry, construction, and partnerships to advance cement innovation for the future.
