What KLAW Industries does

KLAW Industries, founded in 2022 and headquartered in Binghamton, NY, manufactures Ground Glass Pozzolan (GGP), a supplementary cementitious material (SCM) used in concrete as a partial substitute for Portland cement. The company operates an in-house factory that produces approximately 5,000 tons of GGP per year on a footprint of roughly 5,000 sqft with 12-ft ceilings, and serves as a reference site for its commercial offering. It addresses a structural problem in the concrete supply chain: traditional SCMs (fly ash and slag) are byproducts of coal power and steel making, both in secular decline, whereas glass pozzolan can be manufactured intentionally from recycled glass. KLAW's product surface is a turn-key glass SCM production line comprising a Glass Cleanup System, a custom-engineered Hammer Mill (with custom-alloy hammers, AR400 armor, reversible VFD rotation, and PID feed-rate control), and Ball Mills. Each line is built, installed, and commissioned by the KLAW team.

The business model blends three revenue streams. The primary stream is turn-key process sales — one-off capital equipment packages sold to concrete producers and SCM industry entrants, gated by a $28,000 phased Unit Cost Research Project (Market Assessment, Disposal Cost Assessment, Electric Cost Assessment) and mid-funnel tools such as a project calculator and a Book-a-Factory-Tour program. A second, smaller stream is professional services revenue from the research project itself. A third, de minimis stream is branded merchandise (t-shirts, hoodies, Carhartt jackets, bumper stickers) sold via an e-commerce storefront. Distribution is purely direct enterprise field sales in the United States, led by a six-person team under CEO Jack Lamuraglia and COO Jacob Kumpon. Named customers include Heidelberg Materials (a global building materials major) and B&D. Ground Glass Pozzolan is covered by ASTM C1866 and approved by NYSDOT, lowering the regulatory barrier for adoption. The company is privately held, appears bootstrapped, and has no disclosed funding rounds, patents, or AI/ML capabilities.
