CCB Greentech

What CCB Greentech does

CCB Greentech (legally Carbon Capture Building Greentech SAS) is a French cleantech company founded in 2006 by François Cochet and Laurent Noca, headquartered in Beaurepaire, Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes. The company develops and licenses proprietary wood-based concrete (béton de bois) technology — a lightweight cementitious composite containing 80% wood aggregates by volume sourced from PEFC-certified French forests — that achieves negative or very low carbon footprint and enables compliance with France's RE2020 regulation through 2031. Core products include the TimberROC system family (CS2 load-bearing walls up to R+3, FP2/FP3 non-load-bearing façades up to R+10, DS1 high-inertia floor slabs) and ParkROC, a permeable outdoor slab launched in 2025. The formulation, 13 patents, and CSTB ATEx approvals form the technical foundation.

CCB Greentech operates an asset-light B2B licensing-and-channel model rather than selling directly to end users. It licenses TimberROC technology to a network of three specialized prefabrication partners — Spurgin (Provence and Centre-Val de Loire), R-Technologies/Groupe Cheminal (Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes), and Capremib (Grand Est, joined June 2025) — who operate dedicated wood-based concrete plants with combined annual capacity exceeding 600,000 m², provide integrated engineering design offices, and deliver/install prefabricated elements to project sites. Revenue is generated through technology licensing fees/royalties plus product-related streams, with unit pricing of approximately €180-220/m² delivered and installed. The typical cost premium versus traditional concrete or brick is 4-6%, partially offset by foundation savings, reduced thermal breaks, and operational energy savings.

The company serves housing developers, public healthcare institutions (e.g., CHRU de Tours), educational facilities (e.g., Sartrouville school complex), cultural venues, and outdoor landscaping projects, with notable end-clients including Bouygues, Vinci, Eiffage, SNCF, and major social landlords. CCB Greentech has ~20 employees focused on R&D, technical support, and partner enablement rather than direct project execution. Recognition includes the French Ministry of Ecological Transition's Greentech Innovation Award 2023, Nordbat Best Innovation 2024, and CleanTech Open France 2024, alongside ongoing R&D collaboration with CSTB and CERIB.

Core offering

CCB Greentech develops and licenses wood-based concrete (béton de bois) technology, producing low-carbon, prefabricated construction systems containing 80% wood aggregates by volume from French PEFC-certified forests. Its TimberROC® range includes CS2 load-bearing walls, FP2/FP3 non-load-bearing facades, and DS1 pre-slabs for new building construction, while the ParkROC® line adds permeable slabs for outdoor landscaping. Products are commercialized and manufactured through a network of licensed prefabrication partners across France.

Product overview

CCB Greentech is a pioneer in structural wood-based concrete, developing exclusively prefabricated solutions commercialized through licensed prefabrication partners. The product portfolio centers on TimberROC® — a family of construction systems including CS2 (load-bearing walls), FP2/FP3 (non-load-bearing façades), and DS1 (pre-slabs/floors) — for low-carbon new construction of residential, commercial, and public buildings. The offering is complemented by ParkROC®, a permeable slab for outdoor landscaping, parking, and pedestrian applications. All products contain 80% French wood by volume and are certified Bois de France, with EPDs verified on the INIES database.

Targets construction companies, housing developers, and project owners seeking low-carbon structural walls.
• TimberROC FP2 Self-Supporting Facade Self-supporting non-load-bearing fa\u00e7ade panel fixed onto an existing post-and-beam structure, suitable for buildings up to R+4 with thermal time lag of 9.1-11.4 hours depending on thickness. For construction companies and developers specifying low-carbon infill facades.
• TimberROC FP3 Slab-Edge Anchored Facade Non-load-bearing fa\u00e7ade anchored to the slab edge, implemented within the structural work cycle to accelerate secondary trades work with a high-performance low-carbon envelope. For construction firms and developers needing fast, carbon-efficient envelope solutions.

Scale indicators7 records

Recent moves7 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Emerging players

• Hoffmann Green Cement Technologies: French low-carbon cement startup (Euronext-listed) producing clinker-free cements. Targets the same decarbonization-of-concrete opportunity as CCB Greentech but via a different chemistry route; both compete for low-carbon specification slots in French construction tenders.
• CarbonCure Technologies: Canadian company that injects CO₂ into ready-mix concrete to reduce its carbon footprint. Targets the same embodied-carbon reduction problem as CCB Greentech but in conventional concrete rather than a new bio-based material; serves a global customer base.
• CarbiCrete: Canadian startup producing carbon-negative concrete blocks using steel slag and CO₂ sequestration. Targets the same carbon-negative prefabricated masonry segment as CCB Greentech but with a different material composition.

Broad incumbents

• Xella Group (Ytong): European autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC) block manufacturer with a broad low-carbon wall-product portfolio. Provides comparable wall-building materials targeting energy-efficient and sustainable construction across Europe.
• Wienerberger: European leader in clay building materials (bricks, blocks, pavers) with growing sustainable building solutions portfolio. Comparable as an incumbent wall/envelope material supplier expanding into low-carbon and prefabricated offerings.
• Stora Enso (Wood Products division): Major European CLT and engineered wood building products manufacturer. Competes in the prefabricated, low-carbon structural wall/floor market and is increasingly used as an alternative to concrete in mid-rise buildings—directly relevant to CCB Greentech's structural envelope niche.
• Binderholz: Austrian family-owned manufacturer of CLT, glulam, and solid wood construction systems. Offers prefabricated timber building components that compete with wood-based concrete for low-rise and mid-rise bio-based construction projects.
• Lafarge (Holcim Group): Global cement and concrete giant that already partners with CCB Greentech. As a major incumbent with resources to launch competing low-carbon product lines (e.g., ECOPact range), it represents both a potential customer/partner and a credible threat at scale.

Direct peers

• BCB (Béton Chanvre Brocard): French manufacturer of bio-based hempcrete blocks for walls, the most direct conceptual analog to CCB Greentech's wood-based concrete. Competes in the same low-carbon French construction materials category with similar prefabricated wall applications and RE2020-driven demand.
• IsoHemp: Belgian/European producer of hempcrete blocks for new-build and renovation walls. Closely comparable bio-based concrete technology targeting the same European low-carbon building envelope market with regulatory drivers similar to France's RE2020.
