Ouros Materials

We're a materials innovation startup making the next generation of building materials to decarbonize construction's embodied carbon problem, which makes up a whooping 11% of total global GHG emissions. Our composite materials innovation are strong, fire-resistant, super-tough, and uniquely machinable - all produced with a proprietary energy-efficient process that uses 80% less heat compared to the traditional ceramics manufacturing. Our process also mineralizes CO2, allowing us to reach ultra-low carbon footprints. We're commercializing this technology out of the renowned Rutgers Riman Lab with a team that has collectively 40+ YOE commercializing new building materials.
