KLAW Industries is a building materials company that converts waste glass into a sustainable cement replacement called Pantheon. They also develop autonomous robotic sorting systems to modernize recycling facilities and reduce municipal costs.
KLAW Industries is a building materials company based in Binghamton, New York, that specializes in transforming waste glass from recycling facilities into a cement replacement product known as Pantheon. The company utilizes a proprietary, patent-pending process to remove contamination from glass waste, converting material that would otherwise be sent to landfills into a sustainable, low-carbon alternative for concrete production. By offering modular solutions for producing these cementitious materials, KLAW Industries empowers producers to enhance their supply chain efficiency and reduce the overall carbon footprint of their infrastructure projects. The firm has also developed autonomous robotic sorting technologies designed to modernize recycling facilities, improve sorting accuracy, and lower municipal costs.
This technology addresses significant environmental and economic challenges in the construction and waste management sectors. By replacing a portion of traditional cement with Pantheon, the company significantly lowers the embodied carbon of concrete, contributing to more sustainable infrastructure development. The effectiveness of their solutions has been validated through various pilot and commercial projects, including municipal infrastructure and public-facing paths. Supported by non-dilutive funding, including multiple Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) awards from the EPA, KLAW Industries continues to scale its operations to help cities and construction partners achieve long-term sustainability goals while managing costs more effectively.
