A Cambridge idea, built in South Wales

Reclinker started in 2022 as Cambridge Electric Cement, a spin-out from the University of Cambridge. Today we are a team of engineers, scientists and operators taking recycled cement from industrial trials to commercial production in Cardiff.

“If you reheat cement, it reclinkers. In fact, I bet you could even recycle it electrically in an EAF because the chemistry is about right.”

Dr Cyrille Dunant, on the conversation in Professor Julian Allwood's Use Less group that started the company. Quoted by The Concrete Centre.
