How it's madeMimmik Tile

Traditional cement production accounts for 8% of global carbon dioxide emissions. Without radical change, building our world’s infrastructure destroys our chance at a healthy and safe future.

Biomason learned how nature grows through one of its most robust and enduring structures: coral. Taking inspiration from marine ecosystems, Biomason is eliminating the need to emit carbon to produce building materials.

For over 200 years, traditional cement production has released carbon dioxide as a byproduct. The binder of the Mimmik Tile is a multi-patented process that harnesses carbon the same way nature does, preventing emissions. Biomason combines carbon and calcium to produce the binder.

The Mimmik Tile consists of 15% biocement and various other ingredients such as waste materials from granite production.

Biomason developed a custom moulding and shaping process to transform this unique recipe into various sizes, shapes, and textures.

After being released from the mould, the products now have to cure for about 40 hours (compared to 28 days with traditional cement) at ambient temperature. After drying they are ready to get packed and shipped to our clients.

All products are carefully tested according to American and European standards. Testing is done internally and externally by specialized independent organizations.
