Cementir Launches Low Carbon Cement
Italian Company Cementir will begin distributing Futurecem cement which has a carbon footprint that is up to 30% lower compared to regular cement. The launch of the Futurecem technology constitutes a significant contribution to both the green transition of Cementir Group and the construction industry. It is a new grey cement innovated by the Group’s research and development department in Aalborg, Denmark, in close collaboration with its Danish subsidiary, Aalborg Portland. The product is an innovative, validated and patented technology which allows for more than 35% of the energy intensive clinker in cement to be replaced by limestone and calcined clay. The combination of materials in Futurecem has resulted in a more sustainable, high grade cement with up to 30% lower carbon footprint compared to regular Portland cement. The low carbon benefits have been achieved without compromising strength and quality.
