Alive Labs

Alive Labs is pioneering a new class of living materials through Terranite® — a cementitious composite designed for regenerative architecture.

Terranite® is a carbon-negative, fire-safe, and cost-effective construction material that is inherently bio-receptive, enabling bryophytes and associated micro-ecologies to naturally colonise its surface.

These living systems perform measurable ecological functions, including air-pollution breakdown, nutrient cycling, passive thermal regulation, stormwater attenuation, and improvements to human wellbeing — transforming the built environment from inert infrastructure into active, life-supporting architecture.
