Sustainable development

Outside water, concrete is the most used product on Earth.

More concrete is produced than all other building products combined.

Cement production is the third largest emitter of CO₂ globally.

1mt of cement = 1mt of CO₂.

Sand and gravel for concrete production are the most extracted materials in the world by weight.

Natural material scarcity is at critical levels in many areas throughout the world.

Transition to sustainable concrete makes immediate positive impact to global resource:

  • Solves industrial waste disposal problem
  • Lessens reliance on natural resources
  • Reduces CO₂ emissions associated with cement manufacture
