GREEN CEMENT
ECO-FRIENDLY CEMENT PRODUCTS
Cement products designed for both the ready-mix and precast industry to reduce emissions and improve performance / durability of various concrete products.
Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC), the cement powder used all around the world for concrete, accounts for a whopping 8% of global CO2 emissions.
With only 12-17% of the mass, traditional OPC accounts for more than 95% of the embodied CO2 of concrete.
In fact, OPC accounts for 0.9 kg CO2 per kg of cement.* 60-65% of this comes during the decarbonation of limestone.
Replacing OPC with green cement requiring significantly less limestone decarbonation and less energy to produce is the biggest opportunity for making significant change for the embodied emissions of concrete - reducing a good chunk of our global CO2 emissions.
Our flagship Bonhomie Cement is a good start in this journey - eliminating >61% of embodied emissions from infrastructure concrete - while providing a significantly more durable and longer-lasting product.
We know we have a long ways to go to get to zero emission concrete but Bonhomie Cement is a major step in the right direction and is market ready today.
