ReMatter

Rematter is a forward-thinking startup that merges advanced manufacturing techniques with innovative material use to deliver highly sustainable and cost-effective solutions for the construction industry. The company’s flagship product is a floor slab system made from earth and timber, which are locally sourced and low in carbon emissions. This product is designed to help builders reduce greenhouse gas emissions, lower embodied energy, and minimize the overall environmental impact of their projects, all while enhancing building performance and comfort.

Rematter primarily serves clients in the construction industry, including builders, architects, and developers who are focused on sustainability and reducing their carbon footprint. The company operates in the green building materials market, which is growing rapidly as more stakeholders prioritize environmental responsibility.

The business model of Rematter revolves around the sale of its floor slab systems. The company differentiates itself by offering free engineering support to its clients, ensuring that they can seamlessly integrate these sustainable materials into their projects. This added value not only helps in customer retention but also positions Rematter as a partner in sustainable building practices rather than just a supplier.

Revenue is generated through the direct sale of these floor slab systems. By using widely available and locally sourced materials, Rematter keeps production costs low, allowing them to offer competitive pricing without compromising on sustainability. This cost-effectiveness, combined with the high sustainability of their products, makes Rematter an attractive option for environmentally conscious builders.

The leadership team at Rematter brings a unique blend of expertise to the table. The CEO has a background in carpentry and sustainable finance, having previously closed multi-million-dollar startup and project finance deals. The CTO, Tobias Bonwetsch, has extensive experience in robotic automation processes for architecture and construction, gained through his research at ETH Zurich and his previous startup, ROB Technologies.
