Toward Climate-Positive Agriculture in Iceland
A future application of ICELITHâ„¢ as an enhanced-weathering mineral for Icelandic agriculture and hydroponics presents a unique opportunity to improve soil vitality and crop performance while supporting national sustainability goals.
​
Rich in slow-release calcium and plant-available silicon, ICELITHâ„¢ promotes stronger root growth, higher disease resistance, and better crop quality. Its fine, reactive surface also captures atmospheric COâ‚‚ through natural weathering, creating the potential for Icelandic farms to act as passive carbon sinks.
​
By substituting imported limestone for pH control and reducing reliance on synthetic fertilizers, ICELITH™ could enhance agricultural independence, cut input costs, and enable a circular, climate-positive farming model suited to Iceland’s volcanic soils and clean-energy future.
Transforming Waste into Climate-Smart Minerals
At ICELITH™, we are pioneering a new class of synthetic minerals designed to unlock the full potential of Europe’s circular economy. By upcycling recycled materials and industrial by-products, we create high-performance mineral fillers that lower the carbon footprint of both construction and agriculture.
​
Our patent-pending process, powered by clean geothermal and hydropower, operates below traditional clinker temperatures, enabling a low-emission, resource-efficient production pathway. Each stage of the process is engineered to maximize mineral reactivity, minimize waste, and support long-term carbon storage through natural mineral carbonation.
​
From low-carbon concrete and COâ‚‚-reactive coatings to soil and crop enhancement, ICELITH™ materials are designed to close industrial loops and extend the lifetime of natural resources.
​
By transforming discarded waste streams into functional, carbon-storing minerals, ICELITH™ contributes to the global transition toward net-zero infrastructure, sustainable agriculture, and a resilient, circular economy.
