Adept Materials has been selected to participate in Third Derivative, a program designed to accelerate innovation toward climate solutions. Third Derivative was created by the Rocky Mountain Institute (RMI) and has supported many of the most promising companies working toward climate solutions. Adept Materials is developing responsive materials that solve moisture problems in buildings. This is an underappreciated piece of the climate puzzle because moisture management affects the durability and operational efficiency of buildings, in addition to the human concerns of comfort and health. Buildings are becoming more efficient thanks to improvements in insulation, air sealing, and HVAC equipment; however, as buildings get better at trapping air and heat, they also get better at trapping moisture, which has perverse effects. Humidity control is a growing source of operational carbon emissions, while material damage due to mold and rot increases a building’s embodied carbon footprint over the life-cycle.
