Sustainability guidelines for ready mix plant certification

GCP Applied Technologies

Cement content is the most important factor in determining a concrete mix’s embodied energy and carbon footprint. Therefore, if a ready mix producer can reduce their cement use, they will minimize both costs and their CO2 emissions. The ready mix plant personnel doesn’t have to add extra cement or "overdesign" the mix.
