A member of the Titan Cement Group, Titan America is a global cement manufacturer and leader in the industry.
Committed to achieving net-zero emissions by 2050, Titan has an R&D lab, Innovation Hub, and scale-up capabilities in South Florida.
Ternary Blended Cement
- Titan’s ternary blended cement reduces emissions by 40%
- Improves concrete durability
Titan will work with Carbon Limit and UM to validate and incorporate cement and concrete products.
Founded in 2021, Carbon Limit innovates and commercializes concrete solutions for a more sustainable built environment.
CaptureCrete
- Uses clean concrete to reduce emissions
CoolCrete
- Enhances concrete’s ability to reflect sunlight, reducing heat absorption
- Can cool surfaces 10 °C or more
Carbon Limit will harness the expertise of UM and FIU, tapping into their state-of-the-art facilities and extensive networks for research validation and testing.
The Innovative Bridge Technologies/Accelerated Bridge Construction University Transportation Center at FIU (IBT/ABC-UTC) is using a unique process to “spray on” ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC)
Ultra-High-Performance Concrete (UHPC) qualities:
- More durable & resistant to seawater corrosion & other damage
- Existing concrete can be retrofitted using UHPC on bridges & buildings
- Allows for building of smaller, more lightweight structures
- Leads to energy savings

Titan America
A member of the Titan Cement Group, Titan America is a global cement manufacturer and leader in the industry.
Committed to achieving net-zero CO2 emissions by 2050.
Titan has an R&D lab, Innovation Hub, and scale-up capabilities in South Florida.
TERNARY CEMENT
- Titan’s ternary cement reduces CO2 emissions by 40%
- Improves concrete durability
Titan will work with Carbon Limit and UM to validate and incorporate Carbon Limit products into cement and concrete products.
Carbon Limit
Founded in 2021, Carbon Limit is a Climate Tech company that innovates and commercializes concrete solutions for a more
sustainable built environment.
CAPTURE CRETE
- Carbon Limit’s CaptureCrete is a cement replacement that reduces concrete emissions and turns concrete into a carbon-absorbing sponge
- CaptureCrete directly captures a greater amount of CO2 from the atmosphere
Carbon Limit will harness the expertise of UM and FIU, tapping into their state-of-the-art facilities and extensive networks for research validation and testing
Innovative Bridge Technologies/Accelerated Bridge Construction University Transportation Center
The Innovative Bridge Technologies/Accelerated Bridge Construction University Transportation Center at FIU (IBT/ABC-UTC) has patented the application of ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC)
Ultra High Performance Concrete (UHPC) qualities:
- More durable and resistant to seawater corrosion and other forms of damage
- Can be used on both bridges and buildings
- Existing concrete can be retrofitted using UHPC
- Allows for building of smaller, more lightweight structures leading to energy savings and a smaller carbon footprint
FIU will pioneer a Portable UHPC Deployment System that can be assembled and validated for use in demonstration projects.
