Discover how SHIELD Crystalline Technology reduces concrete’s carbon footprint while helping you achieve your sustainability goals for resilient and long-lasting infrastructure.
Making Concrete Climate-Resilient and Future-Ready

Climate change poses a major challenge to sustainable infrastructure. Achieving true sustainability and reducing concrete’s carbon footprint begins at the casting stage, with the goal of producing defect-free concrete that withstands changing environmental conditions.

Crystalline Technologies

Innovative solutions that address key challenges in concrete construction—from casting to its entire lifecycle—ensuring long-term durability and resilience.

Key Challenges Addressed by SHIELD Adaptive Crystalline Technology ®
  •   Improves workability and finishability even in hot, cold, or windy conditions
  •   Enhances hydration in extreme hot or cold climates by ensuring moisture availability
  •   Prevents thermal stress and cracking during hydration by optimizing heat evolution and controlling the differential heat curve.
  •   Manages heat buildup in mass concrete pours, reducing cracking and DEF risks
  •   Enhances microstructural bonding and reduces porosity at the ITZ
  •   Self-heals micro-cracks and pores that form over time to protect concrete from deterioration
  •   Adapts and dynamically manages temperature, moisture, and vapor fluctuations within the concrete
  •   Provides Resilience Against Chemical and Diverse Environmental Challenges throughout the concrete lifecycle

SHIELD technology reducing carbon footprint in concrete construction

Pathway to zero carbon footprint with SHIELD crystalline technology

At SUPERSHIELD, we are committed to sustainable construction by providing innovative, environmentally friendly, and high-performance solutions that reduce the carbon footprint of concrete. Our SHIELD Crystalline Technology enhances durability, resilience, and longevity, making concrete stronger, self-healing, and truly sustainable.

Supershield products free from VOCs and harmful chemicals for safer construction
Environmentally Friendly Products

Our products are free from harmful VOCs (volatile organic compounds) and contain no Red List chemicals or forever chemicals (PFAS), ensuring safer, healthier environments for builders and end-users.

Self-healing concrete technology extending structural life and reducing repairs
Self-healing and Resilient Concrete

Our self-healing technology extends service life, often tripling structural durability. It reduces repairs and replacements, lowering environmental impact, while minimizing material waste, enhancing overall sustainability.

Concrete protected against chloride, ASR, carbonation, and freeze-thaw damage
Durable and Resistant to Environmental Stressors

Our technology protects against chloride ion penetration, ASR, carbonation, and freeze-thaw cycles, ensuring superior concrete durability. It strengthens internal and external structures, preventing premature deterioration, and adapts to climatic changes, guaranteeing long-term resilience.

Sustainable construction using supplementary cementitious materials and lower cement content
Supplementary Cementitious Materials (SCM) and Cement Reduction

Enabling cement reduction and the use of supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs), this approach maintains long-term durability without compromising strength. It also supports low-carbon concrete production, promoting more sustainable construction practices.

Concrete protected by Supershield remains recyclable and resource-efficient
Recyclability and Resource Efficiency

Concrete protected with SHIELD products remains fully recyclable, reducing waste generation and supporting circular economy principles. This approach also lowers embodied carbon throughout the structure’s lifecycle, contributing to sustainable construction.

Fast application and reduced labor with Supershield waterproofing systems
Accelerated Construction and Reduced Manpower

Faster application shortens construction time, while lower manpower requirements ensure a more cost-effective installation, improving overall project efficiency.

The Global 2050 Challenge

The construction industry plays a pivotal role in the fight against climate change, with concrete alone contributing nearly 8% of global CO₂ emissions. Achieving net-zero embodied carbon by 2050 requires urgent and innovative solutions to transform how we build and maintain infrastructure.

At SUPERSHIELD, we are committed to driving this change through our advanced SHIELD Crystalline Technology, which significantly reduces the carbon footprint of concrete, extends its lifespan, and eliminates the need for high-emission waterproofing materials.
