Working with manufacturers, engineers, and laboratories

Fortis Materials develops engineered renewable-carbon materials for water treatment, construction, agriculture, and industrial applications.

We convert invasive and underused biomass into consistent, documented materials through controlled processing and application-specific testing. Every product is engineered for a defined use and supplied with lot-level quality data.

From invasive biomass to working materials.

FortisAquaSorb™

Engineered granular biocarbon media for water treatment and the adsorption of dissolved contaminants.

FortisStorm™

Granular filtration media for stormwater systems, roadside drainage channels, and runoff control.

FortisRemediate™

Engineered adsorbent for contaminated soil and water remediation projects.

FortisFill™

Pumpable low-density fill for washouts, voids, and utility trenches, enhanced with FortisChar™.

FortisSCM™

Processed mineral input evaluated as a supplementary cementitious material for nonstructural concrete, grout, and pavers.

FortisBind™

Soil stabilization additive for weak subgrades, temporary access roads, and washout repair.

FortisRoad™

Fine biocarbon additive developed for asphalt and pavement systems.

FortisBlock™

Masonry units incorporating Fortis materials, produced with manufacturing partners.

FortisDry™

Porous mineral additive for lime and clay plaster systems in humid and historic buildings.

FortisTherm™

Biochar additive for building materials, developed for thermal insulation and humidity regulation.

FortisChar™

Standardized biochar for soil, remediation, and general industrial use.

FortisGrow™

Pre-charged biochar formulated for horticulture and agriculture.

FortisCompost™

Biochar additive for commercial composting operations.

FortisCarbon™

Higher-specification activated carbon for industrial adsorption.

FortisAirSorb™

Activated carbon for odor, VOC, and air-phase filtration.

FortisComposite™

Engineered biocarbon filler for plastics and composite materials.

FortisElectro™

Highly processed carbon under development for electrodes and conductive materials.

The markets we serve

Stormwater retention ponds seen from above

Water & Environmental

Engineered biocarbon media for water treatment, stormwater systems, and site remediation. FortisAquaSorb™, FortisStorm™, and FortisRemediate™.

Concrete being placed on a construction site

Civil & Construction

Renewable-carbon inputs for concrete, masonry, soil stabilization, and pavement. FortisSCM™, FortisBind™, FortisRoad™, and FortisBlock™.

Agriculture

Standardized and pre-charged biochar for soil, horticulture, and compost systems. FortisChar™ and FortisGrow™.

Stormwater

Granular biocarbon media for retention ponds, roadside drainage channels, and stormwater systems, designed to intercept nutrients and sediment before discharge.

Concrete

Renewable-carbon inputs for nonstructural concrete, grout, pavers, and controlled low-strength material.

Soil

Stabilization for weak subgrades, temporary access roads, and washout repair, mixed in place with the existing soil.

Plaster being applied to a wall during restoration work

Historic masonry and humid-climate buildings need walls that manage moisture rather than trap it. FortisDry™ is a porous mineral additive for lime and clay plaster systems, developed for exactly that condition.

Field scientist collecting samples at a remediation site

Odor control, contaminant adsorption, and site remediation share one requirement: a consistent carbon media with known particle size and surface characteristics. FortisChar™ and FortisRemediate™ are specified to deliver it.

Carbon Credits measured at the source

The carbon retained in Fortis biocarbon is quantified at production and registered with an independent carbon registry, which issues removal credits against that record. Credits can be transferred or retired in the holder’s name, and every one traces back to the production run behind it rather than to an estimate.
