At CalCIMA, sustainability isn't an afterthought; it's a priority. That's why we created Climate Tech, a member designation dedicated to spotlighting the companies leading the way in sustainable construction materials and practices.

Climate Tech members are at the forefront of innovation, developing products and services that reduce the carbon footprint of California's built environment. From cutting-edge technologies that capture, recycle or offset emissions, to natural pozzolans and low-carbon cement alternatives, these companies are shaping the future of construction with climate-conscious solutions.

By elevating Climate Tech, CalCIMA showcases the industry's commitment to resilient, low-carbon infrastructure. These members aren't just adapting to California's climate goals - they're driving them. Together, we're ensuring that the materials that build our roads, bridges, homes, and communities are as sustainable as they are essential. 

Climate Tech: Where innovation meets responsibility, and where CalCMIA members lead the path toward a greener tomorrow.

RenuCore embodies a proactive spirit dedicated to market responsibility and excellence. We tirelessly pursue market leadership in landfill-to-pavement conversion through pioneering technology that enhances recycled asphalt shingles (RAS). Our mission is to strengthen and safeguard the brand legacies of our partners while delivering tangible value by reducing costs and increasing recycled content. With an unwavering focus on minimizing carbon output, we are dedicated to making a meaningful impact on our industry and the environment.

We are excited to introduce the formation of a new membership designation to help member companies highlight and brand the sustainability priorities for their low-carbon products and services. It is called Climate Technology (Climate Tech). The Climate Tech designation recognizes members leading the way in developing and producing new low-carbon technologies and products. We are looking to engage the brightest minds in the industry working to reduce carbon in materials, increase recycling, and advance lower-carbon processes and materials—all designed to reduce waste, lower emissions, and fulfill the nation-leading climate goals set by California. This new membership designation will be the foundation of new campaigns celebrating our industry's impact in driving the sustainable growth of California's communities, economy, and environmental protections.

By joining Climate Tech, you'll have the opportunity to:

Associate Members whose products and/or services provide emerging technology alternatives or additives to raw materials resulting in carbon reduction in our manufactured products such as concrete or asphalt. Associate members who qualify for this category would only pay the published flat rate of $2500 instead of the annual dues rate based on company size.

Producer and Essential Materials Members who have products, materials, brands, or technologies that reduce carbon or advance other sustainability benefits and would like to designate them as Climate Technology, provided they are paying dues on those  products, materials, brands, or technologies. This can advance the branding of your products or line of materials. Dues rates will be based on the published price of your member class, calculated on production, but no less than $2500.

Members who qualify for the Climate Tech designation will receive a “Climate Tech Member” logo and a social media template post announcing your designation and commitment to sustainability. We are happy to hold brief informational meetings to discuss the goals we have with our new Climate Tech designation and answer any questions you may have. Please let me know if that would be of interest to you.

We are proud that our industry is playing a leading role in a more sustainable future for our state and nation. Thank you for considering this new opportunity to showcase the important difference your company and people are making. Contact Stephanie Pridmore at spridmore@calcima.org for questions.
