Innovate and partner for low-carbon materials

The initial construction phases present opportunities for the selection and use of materials. Adopting low-carbon materials and promoting circular economy principles maximizes resource efficiency. We help our customers deliver on their targets by working with product development and innovations such as low-carbon concrete and recycled asphalt.

Developing and choosing low-carbon materials

Materials used in construction such as concrete, steel and asphalt are associated with high levels of carbon emissions. Together with other industry actors we are working on different solutions to reduce emissions. Low-carbon concrete is one solution that cuts emissions by substituting and using lower amounts of limestone cement.

Advancing circularity and refurbishment

Progressing circularity is a gradual process which requires testing new ways of working. The goal is to retain the value of the circulating resources by creating a system that enables longer life, reuse, refurbishment and recycling. Reuse of construction materials also reduces carbon emissions.

Waste management

We aim to reduce waste and improve efficiency with smarter design, planning, procurement and logistics. This often goes hand in hand with reduced costs.
