Challenge and SCM’s Expertise
We are committed to sustainability and innovation; by allowing cement producers to partially replace clinker in the cement composition with alternative materials, known as Supplementary Cementitious Materials (SCMs), our products enable improvement in cement performances & a significant reduction on the environmental impact.
SCMs are primarily composed of industrial by-products like, limestone, fly ash, blast furnace slag, and more recently, calcined clays. While these materials offer environmental benefits, they do not provide sufficient performance and strength when used alone in concrete. To address this challenge, our teams have worked closely with our customers to develop the EnviroAdd® range. These innovative products offer tailor-made, sustainable solutions that reduce carbon footprint and costs while delivering superior performance.
Our teams have been at the forefront of industry advancements. We lead the development of activators that enhance the use of SCMs during the grinding process in cement manufacturing. These activators significantly improve the mechanical properties of both cement and concrete, ensuring high-quality results for our customers.
