Focus on research, product development, substituting materials and optimizations in order to develop sustainable products with reduced climate impact.
Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) is a key solution to reach large scale reduction of CO2-emissions from cement, and necessary in order to reach climate neutrality in the construction sector. In parallel, the organisation still needs to work on fuel transition towards increased use of biomass, with R&D for cement products, and new alternative solutions to raw material and the CO2 intensive clinker.
We work proactively and we continuously develop plans to ensure good conditions for biodiversity at our quarrying sites. We have drawn up biodiversity management plan for our quarries.
We are digitalizing production to use resources more efficiently across whole supply chain and to increase productivity.
