Laputa launches deployable carbon capture and utilisation solution

As climate change intensifies and extreme weather events become more frequent worldwide, decarbonisation is no longer a distant ambition but an urgent industrial priority. In the construction sector, one of the world's major sources of carbon emissions, the challenge is clear: How to advance low-carbon building materials without compromising efficiency or effective cost control.

Laputa Eco-Construction Materials Co. Ltd. (Laputa), a climate-tech company originating from Hong Kong, is addressing this challenge with a practical and deployable solution. The company integrates CCU technology directly into concrete production, converting carbon dioxide that would otherwise be released into the atmosphere into low-carbon construction materials. The solution can be adopted within existing production lines without requiring large-scale infrastructure overhaul.

This approach means decarbonisation does not need to wait for a complete rebuild of the industry. Instead, it can begin within existing systems, enabling traditional building materials manufacturers to transition with lower barriers to adoption.

Unlike many climate technologies that remain at the laboratory or pilot stage, Laputa has developed an integrated solution covering system design, equipment assembly, and on-site deployment. This ability to move from innovation to implementation strengthens its commercialisation potential and positions Hong Kong innovation for broader international relevance.

With support from The Hong Kong Productivity Council (HKPC) under its 'The Cradle – Go Global Service Centre' (The Cradle), Laputa recently showcased its technology at VivaTech 2026 in Paris, using the event as a springboard to accelerate its European expansion. As the European market continues to push for low-carbon and circular economy solutions, demand is growing for technologies that can be implemented immediately and at scale.

At the same time, through collaboration with its affiliated company CS Tech — the CCU technology provider and licensor — Laputa has further strengthened its technical stability and production scalability, reinforcing its foundation for overseas growth.

Dixon Chan, a founder of Laputa, said:

"Climate change is not a future issue; it is happening now. Our goal is not only to develop technology, but to make sure it can actually be adopted and scaled. Starting from Hong Kong, we want to bring practical low-carbon solutions to different parts of the world."

From Hong Kong to Europe and beyond, Laputa's growth journey reflects more than the progress of one company. It signals an important shift in local innovation — from research-led development to application-driven impact. As climate challenges become more urgent, the companies that can bring real solutions to real industrial settings will play a defining role in the global low-carbon construction.
