Harnessing the benefits of carbon nanotube technology for commercial application in:
-
concrete and
-
plastics.
Carbon Nanotubes and H 2
CNT - act as nucleation points for dense cement hydration - builds on all surfaces of CNT in concrete.
CNT - Create quintillions (10[18] ) of flexible, super-strong carbon nano-structures throughout the concrete.
CNT - Produce stronger, tougher and more durable concrete.

Key properties of CNT:
CNT - Produce stronger, tougher, more durable plastics.
-
Tensile Strength: 100-300x steel
-
Weight: ~17% of steel
-
Highly conductive: thermally and electrically

CNT-enriched Liquid Concrete Admixtures Deliver more durable, higher performance concrete with significant CO2 reductions
EdenCrete[®] is a cost effective, carbon nanotube enriched liquid admixture that is mixed into wet Portland concrete:
-
Increases durability, flexural, tensile & compressive strength, and abrasion resistance; and
-
Reduces shrinkage, permeability and damage from salt and chemicals and increases freeze / thaw resistance.
EdenCrete® Pz / Pz7 are cost effective, carbon nanotube enriched liquid admixture that is mixed into any wet concrete (including high pozzolan mixes (fly ash and slag) that :
- Often increase compressive strength and abrasion resistance, reduce permeability, and can also improve flexural strength and other characteristics.

EdenCrete[®]
Anticipated Continued Global Growth of EdenCrete[®] Market - FY 2023
Drivers Of EdenCrete[®] Sales Growth in Global Markets
Infrastructure Funding
-
USA- US$110bn- roads /bridges, US$25bn - airports, US$15bn - ports -8 years
-
INDIA - US$1.35 trillion infrastructure programme (including highways) (announced 2021)
Low CO Concrete 2
-
Achieved with use of EdenCrete® Pz and Fly Ash (waste from coal fired power stations) to replace Portland cement, resulting in low CO2 , low cost, high strength, ultra-low permeability concrete.
-
EdenCrete® Pz allows replacement of �60% of cement with low cost fly ash (coal fired power station waste) producing low cost, high strength, low CO2 concrete.
-
Locks up polluting fly ash (includes heavy metals and other toxins) often dumped in land fill, ponds, lakes.
-
Reduces CO2 footprint by~90% of mass of cement replaced - 100kg cement replaced = ~ 90 kgs CO2 saved.
-
-
~ ~
-
Carbon credits sell in Europe for US$87/tonne of CO2 saved , valuing 90kg of CO2 at US$7.83.
-
Price of 1m[3] of average concrete varies from ~ US$65/m[3] in India up to US$170/m[3] in USA
-
~ ~
-
The value of 90 kgs of CO2 saved is 15% of the concrete cost in India , and I 4.6% of the concrete cost in USA
-
India - great potential : 1.4 billion population, major infrastructure expansion; huge coal fired power
-
production
- 150 million tonnes p.a. of fly-ash (rising to~500 million tonnes p.a. in 5 years)- works well with EdenCrete® Pz
-
Indonesia - 270 million population-large fly ash supply -3 major concrete companies in final trials- great results EDEN INNOVATIONS | ASX: EDE
-
Shotcrete - low dosages of EdenCrete® deliver less friction, less waste, cheaper, better shotcrete-Growing k t
The Future

Proprietary and patented technologies and core expertise in manufacturing and production of carbon nanotubes, hydrogen and carbon nanotube enriched products
High barriers to market entry, with over 10 years in product development, established direct working relationships with Government departments, plus strong patent protection and proprietary technology across entire product range
EdenCrete[®] operates in a global concrete market expected to reach US $921 billion and growing at approx. 8% p.a.- proven across all market sectors. EdenPlast® opens access to huge plastics market. Hydrogen has great potential with global focus on clean energy and lower CO2 emissions if sufficient use of the CNT can be generated
EdenCrete® Significant US Government traction with product approval from 21 Departments of Transportation, repeat GDOT . contracts in Georgia, road and trial projects Colorado , Ohio, Iowa. Ports. Extra Federal funding.
Strong EdenCrete[®] sales growth emerging: Sales in 12 US states, trials in 15 US states. Emerging sales in India, Australia, New Zealand, Israel and many trials underway or planned including advanced trials in Indonesia
- OptiBlend[®] Sales growing, particularly in India ; many markets applications; major expansion of Indian sales occurring in greater Delhi where due to extreme air pollution, government banned use of diesel-only gensets during winter
EdenPlast[®] - First trial with CNT enriched masterbatch; Global plastics market near US $600 billion and growing at ≈ 3% p.a.
Significantly growing momentum across all current products, many major projects in pipeline that could generate large revenue , and are anticipated to result in strong sales and news flow over FY 2023 and beyond
