Overview
Heirloom Technologies focuses on reducing atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) levels through Direct Air Capture technology. This process extracts CO2 from the air and utilizes limestone to accelerate carbon mineralization, turning CO2 into rock within days. The company sells carbon removal credits, which allow businesses to offset their emissions by representing the permanent removal and safe storage of CO2. Heirloom's first commercial facility, launched in 2020, highlights its rapid growth in the carbon credit market, offering affordable credits at under $100 per ton of CO2 by 2035. Unlike competitors, Heirloom not only addresses carbon neutrality for businesses but also creates high-paying jobs in the environmental technology sector while ensuring minimal environmental impact.
