A new life for an old idea
Quebec SMEs in innovation
After acquiring Isobloc last year, when the company was "at rock bottom," Eric Dionne now aims to triple its revenue within five years.
The manufacturer of insulated structural blocks will do this by courting architects, as well as contractors.
Pollution-reducing, durable, and affordable concrete
Quebec SMEs in innovation
Two Quebec companies, Isobloc and CarbiCrete, have combined their expertise to create Isobloc ZERO, an insulated masonry block made from cement-free concrete.
This technology reduces the carbon footprint of concrete by replacing cement and capturing CO₂, while maintaining its strength and durability.
A concrete solution for the environment
La Presse – SME Inspiration
The Quebec newspaperLa Pressehas focused on the innovation developed around cement-free concrete and its potential to transform the construction industry.
The article highlights a solution that significantly reduces the carbon footprint associated with concrete production, particularly through technologies capable of replacing traditional cement with industrial by-products and capturing CO₂ during the manufacturing process.
This approach paves the way for new ways to design building materials and demonstrates that it is possible to build more sustainable infrastructures while maintaining the expected performance for commercial and industrial projects.
A first project completed with decarbonized masonry
See Green – The portal for sustainable building in Quebec
Le média spécialisé Voir Vert, reconnu dans l’industrie du bâtiment durable au Québec, s’est intéressé à la réalisation d’un premier projet utilisant une maçonnerie décarbonée grâce à la technologie CarbiCrete et au système mural Isobloc.
L’article explique comment cette innovation permet de remplacer le ciment traditionnel par des sous-produits industriels et de capter du CO₂ lors de la fabrication du matériau. Cette approche contribue à réduire l’empreinte carbone associée aux matériaux de construction tout en conservant les performances nécessaires pour les bâtiments commerciaux et industriels.

A first Isobloc ZERO project
La Presse – SME Inspiration
A first building using Isobloc ZERO technology has been constructed. In a SME Inspiration section published last year, La Presse reported on this technology developed by Isobloc and CarbiCrete, which reduces the environmental footprint of constructions by using steel slag, an industrial waste, instead of cement in concrete production.
It is now well represented in a building constructed by Maçonnerie Richard Lauzière for Patio Drummond. “It is possible to reduce pollution in the construction industry and build more sustainably, right here,” mentions Eric Dionne, director of Isobloc.
