Secondary raw materials for low-carbon construction
Innovative cement substitutes from mining residues
reincem converts anthropogenic mineral waste into high-value secondary raw materials for the cement and concrete industry.
What we offer
Turning residual materials into secondary raw materials
We provide the essential know-how to facilitate the conversion of residual materials from anthropogenic sources into secondary raw materials.
Our focus is on upcycling mining residues of the coal industry for use in the concrete and cement industries.
In-house equipment
From initial analysis to finished secondary raw material
Within our network, we offer a comprehensive range of services, from the initial analysis of mineral waste to the finished secondary raw material.
This includes consultancy services, processing and extraction of secondary raw materials, as well as licensing models that enable customers to participate in our innovations.
Why us
Innovation, interdisciplinarity and many years of experience
Our team combines innovation and interdisciplinarity with many years of experience in research, development and the business world.
We build on a foundation of long-standing collaboration with RWTH Aachen University and the more than 100-year history of our partner, the HEITKAMP Unternehmensgruppe.
Recycling solutions
Processing material from waste rock piles into valuable secondary raw materials
We offer solutions for processing material from waste rock piles into valuable secondary raw materials.
Where mountains of problems previously dominated, we create competitive raw material solutions with innovation and interdisciplinary approaches.
SCM
An innovative cement substitute made from mine waste heaps
Our business is founded on an innovative cement substitute made from mine waste heaps. We remain closely connected to these origins and are constantly building on them.
The development of cement substitutes and concrete admixtures, combined with extraction and processing from man-made deposits, is our passion.
Our unique selling point
Leading in upcycling naturally tempered coal dump material to low-carbon SCM material
In this patented product, we focus on residues of the coal industry that have burned through self-ignition processes.
We extract this autogenously calcined material and process it for use as a concrete additive or SCM while minimizing energy and water consumption.
Our company
From research project to industrial impact
An interdisciplinary start-up team was formed in 2020 as part of a joint research project between the HEITKAMP Group and RWTH Aachen University. The company was founded in 2022.
Our vision is for mineral waste materials from man-made deposits to replace primary mineral raw materials as a key raw material source in construction.
Our mission is to conserve resources and reduce CO₂ emissions in the construction industry through innovative approaches to secondary raw materials.
Voices on the project
Mining regions were the driving force behind industrialisation; now they are beginning to become the driving force behind sustainable industrial transformation.
