Earthbound transforms excavated soil into high-performing building materials. At the intersection of research, design, and production, we create circular products and components for a regenerative construction industry. Sustainable, healthy, and affordable.
Produced from local soils in a low energy process, our products are genuine alternatives for contemporary construction projects. Our earthen building materials combine a healthy indoor climate with high technical performance and economic feasibility. They are tested in accordance with applicable standards and can therefore be used without the need of special permits.
Innovation at Earthbound emerges where research meets practice. We develop new building materials and systems in collaboration with scientists and practitioners. Our solutions are tested, validated, and ready for use in real-world construction to deliver sustainable products that are scalable and affordable.
Berlin, 7 May 2026
We have officially inaugurated our production facilities at Berlin’s Urban Tech Republic. We are now transforming local urban excavation material directly into regenerative earth building materials. The launch event featured insights from industry, policy and research and gave guests a front-row seat to witness our process of transforming raw excavation waste into high-quality earth blocks.
What is usually considered waste is a valuable resource for us. We develop materials that close material loops and conserve landscapes – including the reuse of construction and demolition waste as input materials and full deconstruction at the end of life cycle. With our products, construction becomes part of a functioning circular economy.
