GCP Products Address 60% of Concrete & Cement Actions for Net Zero Future
March 10 2022 - 6:30AM
GCP Applied Technologies (NYSE:GCP), a leading global provider of
construction products, reveals product solutions that address over
60% of actions outlined by the Global Cement and Concrete
Association (GCCA) to commit to producing carbon neutral concrete
by 2050.
With cement accounting for 8% of global man-made CO2 emissions,
it is paramount to source solutions to improve sustainability. GCP
recognizes that options must also be cost efficient, and offers
products that not only reduce carbon throughout the lifecycle of
concrete, but reduce costs. In 2021, GCP’s cement additives and
concrete admixtures reduced their customers’ CO2 emissions by an
estimated 23 million tons, equivalent to taking seven million cars
off the road every day.
“This is a pivotal moment in the concrete and cement industry.
Producers are under considerable pressure to change the way they
produce cement and develop new approaches that are more
sustainable. We are here to help them get there,” said GCP
President & CEO Simon Bates. “Our solutions reduce waste and
energy consumption through the entire cycle of concrete production
while improving strength. GCP products enable plants to reduce
their environmental footprint, while also saving them money.”
GCP’s products align with the GCCA 2050 Cement and Concrete
Industry Roadmap for Net Zero Concrete, playing a key role in
reducing CO2 and operational costs, in addition to extending the
life of concrete structures. The company’s sustainability goal is
to further enable cement and concrete producers to save 500 million
tons of CO2 per year, therefore reducing over 1% of man-made CO2
emissions.
