Holcim is expanding its range of low-carbon cements by reducing clinker content and incorporating supplementary cementitious materials like fly ash, slag, and calcined clay. These binders aim to lower the carbon footprint of structural concrete and infrastructure projects without compromising durability. In the US and European markets, the shift toward greener concrete is driven by stricter public procurement rules and green building certifications. This transition focuses on performance-based specifications that allow for lower-carbon mixes while maintaining structural safety standards.
