Cementir Group ____________________________________________________________________________________________
FUTURECEM ® in France in 2022 , while in Benelux the target was 2023 . The scheduling is also linked to addressing the complexity of different markets , habits , and regulations , which could limit innovative and low carbon cements with additional local certifications .
In collaboration with customers , FUTURECEM ® has been tested and used in a wide range of applications from Ready Mix Concrete ( RMC ) to precast elements . It was also included in the research project ‘ Blocs B40 for low carbon concrete ’ led by CERIB . FUTURECEM ® ’ s experience in Denmark and now in France and the Benelux area is paving the way for limestone calcined clay technology in other markets as part of the group ’ s ambitious sustainable roadmap towards 2030 and beyond .
Moving onto white cement , and we find Cementir embracing the challenge of lowering this cement ’ s carbon footprint within color and performance requirement constraints . White cement poses challenges . Almost no new materials can effectively replace white clinker without negatively impacting whiteness - the distinctive value proposition in comparison to grey cement . Therefore , the selection , availability , and consistency of quality materials are crucial in reducing the carbon footprint of white cement production .
Science-based sustainability
Leveraging its long-term expertise in research and development and industrial production , comprehensive investigation and applying fast-prototyping techniques , Cementir is going to launch D-Carb : a new umbrella brand for white low-carbon cements , supporting industry-wide decarbonisation efforts . Firstly rolling out in Europe , D-Carb will then be released in all regions . The first product of its kind , a CEM II / A-LL 52.5R will be
