Company Description
TerraGreen Limited is founded by scientists and business leaders with expertise in civil and construction engineering. Production of conventional construction materials, such as cement and concrete, generates significant amount of greenhouse gases and aggravates global warming. We are devoted to developing new technologies of producing sustainable construction materials from municipal wastes (e.g., construction waste, plastic waste, food waste, etc.) in order to incorporate sustainability and carbon neutrality into social development. The novelty of our technologies has recognised by receiving a Gold Medal with Congratulations of the Jury and a Gold Medal in Geneva inventions and HKUST-SINO One Million Dollar Entrepreneurship Competition, respectively. We provide our customers with economical, green and versatile materials to improve a variety of constructions including pavements and partition walls. We work hand-in-hand with our customers to shoulder social responsibilities and promote Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) in their enterprise. In the future, we will establish one-stop system to recycle waste from its source and materialise the waste to echo the call for net-zero carbon action plans not only in Hong Kong, but also in the world.
