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.
