Carbfix is a knowledge-based company offering consultancy and service in the field of capturing CO₂, in order to fight the climate crisis. The Carbfix technology is efficient and environmentally friendly and revolves around the capture and subsequent disposal of CO₂ emissions, instead of releasing it into the atmosphere. In short, CO₂ is transformed to stone by speeding up a natural process. Water containing dissolved CO₂ – a kind if carbonated water – is injected into favourable subterranean bedrock where it transforms to minerals in less than 2 years, by the exact same process nature has done for millions of years to reduce the strength of CO₂ in the atmosphere.
