Amidon Labs
Amidon CarbonCrete
An Amidon Labs development program for protective concrete that incorporates reclaimed carbon recovered from used and defective tires.
What CarbonCrete is
Amidon CarbonCrete incorporates reclaimed carbon recovered from used and defective tires into an Amidon protective concrete mix. It is a research program inside Amidon Labs, not a released product.
The question the program is working on is straightforward: can a recovered material take a place in a protective concrete mix while the finished material still meets the same standard of evidence we apply to Amidon Shield?
How we will talk about it
We are not publishing performance claims for CarbonCrete while development and testing continue. When independent test results exist, they will appear on our test data page with the laboratory, the standard and the conditions named, the same way Amidon Shield results do.
For ballistic, blast and forced-entry performance data available today, see Amidon Shield and the ArmorBlock wall system.
