ORIS Materials Intelligence is a climate technology company that develops carbon accounting and materials optimisation software for linear transportation infrastructure (roads and railways). The company conducts applied research in infrastructure sustainability and has published peer-reviewed papers on life-cycle assessment methodology and digital transformation in civil engineering.[1]
History
[edit]Foundation and Incubation (2015–2021)
[edit]ORIS was created in 2015 as an intrapreneurial initiative within the Holcim Innovation Center in Saint-Quentin-Fallavier.[2]
ORIS was registered as a commercial company in 2021, operating initially as a corporate spin-off.
Independence and Series A Funding (2025)
[edit]In September 2025, ORIS completed a corporate carve-out from Holcim, securing € 3 million in Series A funding led by Liberset, a European investment company focused on sustainable industrialisation.[3] The funding round established ORIS as an independent entity with governance led by its co-founders and management team.[4]
Technology
[edit]ORIS main product is a cloud-based software as a service (SaaS) platform that measures and optimises carbon emissions and material usage in linear transportation infrastructure projects. The platform combines artificial intelligence, data science, and engineering expertise to enable early-stage environmental assessment and optimisation.[5][6]
Partnerships
[edit]ORIS collaborates with major international engineering firms and software providers, including Ramboll, Autodesk, Sweco, and AECOM, as well as public authorities and development organisations like Die Autobahn or the United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO). [5][7][8][9][10][11]
Research
[edit]ORIS conducts and publishes scientific research on infrastructure sustainability, life-cycle assessment methodologies, and digital transformation in civil engineering. The company's research team, led by co-founder Renaud de Montaignac, has published papers at major international conferences and in peer-reviewed journals.[12][13][14]

Impact
[edit]In 2024, ORIS reported that its platform identified optimisation opportunities across 19,199 kilometers of road infrastructure projects, enabling clients to potentially:
- Avoid 3.2 million tonnes of CO₂ emissions
- Reduce usage of 4.4 million tonnes of primary materials
- Save $24 million in project costs
The platform served approximately 1,400 users across engineering firms, infrastructure owners, and public authorities.[18]
Leadership
[edit]Nicolas Miravalls
[edit]Co-founder and CEO. Miravalls has over 20 years of experience in infrastructure construction, having worked in contracting, consulting, and construction materials before founding ORIS. He led the transition of ORIS from intrapreneurial initiative to independent company.
Renaud de Montaignac
[edit]Co-founder and Chief Operating Officer. De Montaignac holds a PhD in structural engineering and has over 20 years of experience in design, project management, and operations for large infrastructure projects. He has contributed to multiple scientific publications on infrastructure sustainability and life cycle assessment.
Research Team
[edit]Laura Traseira Piñeiro, Ph.D. – Project Engineer. Traseira Piñeiro holds a doctorate in civil engineering from the University of Nottingham (2019–2023) and an MBA. She joined ORIS Materials Intelligence in 2023 following research at the Nottingham Transportation Engineering Centre focused on pavement engineering and sustainability. Her research examines pavement design optimisation and sustainable infrastructure development for road networks. She has co-authored peer-reviewed papers on design optimisation for sustainable link-road development and digitalisation in road construction, published at the Institute of Asphalt Technology and the International Road Federation World Congress. She holds an MSc in Civil Engineering from the University of A Coruña.
Léa Fischer – LCA and Materials Engineer. Fischer serves as the LCA Project Manager at ORIS Materials Intelligence, where she leads life-cycle assessment and carbon footprint analyses for infrastructure projects. She holds a master's degree in Materials Sciences from Grenoble INP - Phelma, specialising in Advanced Materials for Innovation and Sustainability, and a double degree in Physics, Innovation and Entrepreneurship from Aalto University. Her research focuses on systematic digitalisation for climate mitigation in road planning and intelligent material sourcing for highway construction. She has co-authored papers presented at Pavement, Roadway and Bridge Life Cycle Assessment conferences and the LCM conference series on infrastructure life cycle assessment methodologies.
Danilo Ebbinghaus-Carrari – Climate Resilience Expert and Data Engineer. Ebbinghaus Carrari specialises in climate resilience assessment and data-driven infrastructure planning at ORIS Materials Intelligence. He holds a Master of Science in Materials Science for Sustainable Construction from École des Ponts ParisTech, where he also completed an engineering degree. His research addresses comprehensive methodologies for sustainable and climate-resilient transport networks. He co-authored research presented at the International Conference on Highway Engineering on integrating climate adaptation and resilience into infrastructure network planning.
