Impact
The difference we make
Concept Loop’s EcoGrete™ solution delivers a multifaceted positive impact, addressing critical environmental and social challenges. By diverting low-value plastic waste from harmful disposal methods like burning and landfilling, we prevent the release of toxic pollutants and mitigate the risk of microplastics contaminating water resources. Our innovative approach reduces the extraction of natural aggregates for concrete, lowering the carbon footprint of construction. Furthermore, our solution fosters a circular economy, transforming waste into valuable building materials and creating local jobs. By prioritizing diversity and inclusion, we empower underrepresented groups and contribute to a more equitable society. Ultimately, Concept Loop’s work enhances environmental sustainability, promotes public health, and drives socio-economic progress.
Measurable Impact (Impact Calculations)
- Plastic Waste Redirected: (to be entered in Tons) (e.g value =5 tons)
- Carbon Offset: (Plastic redirected multiplied by 3.46) (e.g value = 17.3 Tons CO2e)
- Eq. Packaging Recovered: (per ton plastic multiplied by 7600) (e.g value = 3800)
Note: Reach out to Concept Loop’s technical team to gain a deeper understanding of the methodology behind these impact calculations. Their insights can provide clarity on the metrics, such as plastic waste redirected, carbon offsets achieved, and equivalent packaging recovered, ensuring accurate interpretation of the data and its implications.

Sustainable Development Goals (We target)
Concept Loop's EcoGrete™ solution actively contributes to several Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs):
Our operations create direct and indirect jobs, including those in manufacturing, sales, and waste collection. We also empower informal waste workers by providing them with a more sustainable income and improved working conditions.
We introduce an innovative, low-carbon alternative to traditional building materials, fostering sustainable infrastructure development. Our technology represents a significant advancement in the construction industry's approach to waste and resource management.
By prioritizing diversity and inclusion within our workforce and engaging with disadvantaged communities, we strive to reduce inequalities. We ensure fair and equitable opportunities for employment and professional growth.
Our solution helps create more sustainable cities by reducing waste, lowering carbon emissions, and promoting the use of recycled materials in construction. This contributes to cleaner, healthier urban environments.
We champion a circular economy by diverting low-value plastic waste from landfills and transforming it into valuable building materials. This promotes responsible consumption and production patterns, minimizing waste and maximizing resource efficiency.
We collaborate with various organizations, including corporations, development agencies, and production partners, to achieve our impact. These partnerships are essential for scaling our solution and contributing to broader sustainable development efforts.
Our solution significantly reduces carbon emissions by lowering the embodied carbon in concrete and preventing the harmful disposal of plastic waste through burning or landfilling. We actively combat climate change by offering a sustainable alternative to traditional practices.
By diverting plastic waste from entering waterways and oceans, we help protect marine ecosystems and biodiversity. Reducing plastic pollution is crucial for the health of our oceans and the life within them.
Our solution minimizes the need for natural aggregate extraction, which can lead to land degradation and habitat loss. By utilizing recycled materials, we contribute to the preservation of terrestrial ecosystems and biodiversity.
