Kompozite (Future 40) raises 1,4M€ for its solution helping the building industry to design carbon neutral buildings

First fundraising for the new Future 40 batch, the group of the 40 most promising seed-stage companies of STATION F. Kompozite, also part of STATION F’s Founders Program, announced today a 1,4M€ raise with two French impact funds (Citizen Capital & Alliance for Impact) and a German fund specialized in the construction sector (Foundamental). Historical investors of the company (Christophe Chausson, Marc Batty, Christophe Courtin, Pierre Trémolières and Patrick Jacquemin), that participated in a first 200k€ pre-seed funding in 2020, are also involved in this new roundtable.

As a DeepTech startup, Kompozite is committed to shift to sustainable buildings. Knowing that the building industry is responsible for 30% of our carbon emissions, Damien Cuny and Boris Gusarov, the two co-founders of the company, developed a digital platform for processing material data to support the building industry in its transition to carbon neutrality. Depending on the constraints of a building, the solution will automatically generate low-carbon material combinations to building designers.

“It is an easy-to-use decision-making tool, giving objective results. Once the search is completed, building designers can choose between several construction systems in just a few clicks. This is not only a time-saving tool, but it also enables designers to generate solutions that they would not necessarily have thought about, and of course, to build more sustainably”, explains Damien Cuny.

Around 50 actors in the sector have already tested and approved the platform’s beta version and Kompozite has also received the Greentech label by the French Ministry of Ecological Transition. Their solution is available online since January 2022. Kompozite’s team is composed of 9 persons, counting building engineers, software engineers, mathematicians and physicists, including 2 PhDs.
