Calciopolymer™
Icelith develops Calciopolymer™ minerals — engineered calcium-based mineral materials designed to enable polymerisation-driven cementitious reactions.
Calciopolymer™ minerals are formulated using Engineered Vitrified Silicates (EVS) as their primary reactive mineral source. EVS are composition- and process-controlled vitrified silicate materials engineered to provide predictable calcium–silicate reactivity during hydration or activation, enabling the formation of inorganic polymeric gel networks that deliver strength and durability.
​
Depending on formulation, Calciopolymer™ minerals function either as advanced supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) compatible with existing OPC-based concrete systems, or as mineral precursors for cement-free and hybrid binder systems.
This approach enables substantial COâ‚‚ reduction while maintaining compatibility with industrial concrete production, established standards, and scalable manufacturing.
Icelith is a Nordic innovation platform dedicated to upgrading selected industrial mineral streams into engineered, high-performance materials for construction and related applications.
​
By combining mineral processing, controlled thermal reactions, and material design, Icelith transforms underutilized by-products into functional calcium-based systems with tailored performance characteristics. The focus is on creating materials that integrate seamlessly into existing construction value chains while enabling new low-carbon pathways where traditional resources are becoming constrained.
​
The ambition is to support lower-emission material solutions and long service life through mineral-based design, emphasizing durability, compatibility with established standards, and long-term stability rather than short-term substitution.
About ICELITH /ˈaɪs.lɪθ/
As Europe accelerates the transition to a low-carbon economy, large material streams from infrastructure development and renewable energy systems are emerging faster than viable high-value uses. These mineral by-products represent a growing structural challenge — and an untapped resource.
​
Icelith is focused on upgrading selected mineral residues into engineered calcium-based materials with applications across construction, soil systems, and industrial processes. The ambition is to help address shortages of critical mineral inputs while reducing reliance on conventional raw materials.
​
Using low-emission energy sources such as geothermal power and hydropower, Icelith develops mineral solutions designed to interact constructively with COâ‚‚ over their service life. By combining circular resource use with mineral engineering, Icelith aims to contribute to practical decarbonisation pathways in sectors where material choice matters most.
