Altarize was founded with a singular purpose: to develop and democratize access to innovative, material-based technologies that reduce the environmental footprint of the construction industry. From day one, the focus has been on exploring a wide range of natural materials spanning mineral-based compounds, plant fibers, and composites. This research has led to the creation of sustainable finishing materials such as lime and clay-based plasters, renders, and paints products that enhance both the aesthetic and environmental quality of modern architecture.
Operating from Bali, Indonesia, Altarize draws inspiration from traditional wisdom and craftsmanship passed down through generations. By integrating locally available resources and repurposing waste materials, the company delivers solutions that are not only environmentally responsible but also culturally rooted. The result is a suite of high-performance, eco-friendly products tailored to suit contemporary building needs while respecting local traditions.
At its core, Altarize is more than a materials company it is a movement. The mission is clear: to eliminate toxic substances from construction, support healthier living environments, and inspire a global shift towards sustainability and artisan value. By prioritizing natural, local, and upcycled materials, Altarize seeks to redefine what it means to build responsibly.
Equally important is the company’s commitment to people. Altarize is a social enterprise that places worker well-being at the forefront. From fair wages and comprehensive health insurance to access to micro-loans and dignified housing, the company invests deeply in the people behind the craft. The goal is to build a system where profit does not come at the cost of human dignity.
Altarize offers next-generation materials with superior sustainability and durability, ensuring that they remain accessible and affordable. These materials are designed not only to endure but to contribute positively to human health and environmental balance. Each product is an opportunity to create spaces that breathe, adapt, and inspire—spaces that reflect harmony between humanity and nature.
The company’s vision is bold: to lead the construction industry toward a carbon-neutral, toxin-free future one building at a time. Through conscious design, ethical practices, and a deep respect for ecosystems and cultural heritage, Altarize is setting a new standard for what it means to build for the future.
Every material choice becomes a step toward a better world one that is more sustainable, inclusive, and deeply connected to both people and place.(*)
