Details

CleanO2 is the first company to turn carbon dioxide emissions into natural soap. We started in Calgary Alberta, and have since expanded to deploy CarbinX units across Canada, the United States and Japan. We’ve partnered with some of the country's largest companies who are committed to reducing carbon dioxide emissions and are eager to expand into other global markets!  


Our incredible CarbinX machines capture carbon dioxide from building heating systems — including boilers, water heaters and furnaces — that use natural gas. Once installed, a typical CarbinX unit will have the same carbon-reducing impact as 300 trees! As we expand our international reach, we are looking to better understand the market-entry strategy for other countries. We are currently prioritizing expansion into:

  • Europe (students could help narrow down the best entry-point country).
  • Australia.
  • South Korea.
  • Thaliand.
  • Middle East.
  • South America.


Considering our CabinX machines capture carbon from buidling heating systems, market entry is easier in coutnries with a centralized heat platform. There may be additional countries outside of our list that could be targeted for entry based on the structure of their heating infrastructure.
