Following its rollout in Europe and the US, Lafarge Canada introduces ECOPact, a range of green concrete, delivering high-performing, sustainable and circular benefits with the opportunity to reuse materials in construction.
This introduction is an essential component of the company's strategy to advance the transition towards low-carbon and circular construction.
ECOPact is sold at a range of low-carbon levels, from 30% to 70% less carbon emissions compared to standard concrete. Future product expansion in the coming months will allow up to 100% reduction in carbon emissions compared to standard concrete. Where regulatory conditions allow, ECOPact products integrate upcycled construction and demolition materials, further closing the resource loop.
With this new ECOPact green concrete range LafargeHolcim aims to lead sustainable and circular construction. With one-third of its net sales already in sustainable solutions, LafargeHolcim offers a broad portfolio of low-carbon products and technologies. With the Research and Development (R&D) organisation, the company dedicates 50% of its innovation resources to low carbon solutions, with 40% of its patents currently in this area.
