Ready-mix concrete
Concrete is second only to water as the most-consumed commodity on the planet, by volume, and is of huge importance to economic development. Urbanization is accelerating cement demand around the world, with particularly high growth predicted from emerging economies.
Turning waste into energy: Geocycle
Alternative fuels are an important source of energy, contributing toward lowering global CO2 emissions. Holcim Group companies have taken a major step forward in the use of alternative fuels and raw materials through Geocycle, our waste management brand. This covers most of our operations in Asia, Europe and North America , and builds on Holcim’s 18 years’ experience in co-processing. Geocycle customers benefit from standard waste disposal services or individual solutions to ensure eco-efficient recycling of unwanted by-products. Holcim Group companies use the waste materials in energy generation and cement production, so conserving virgin natural resources, lowering fossil fuel consumption and reducing CO2 emissions per tonne of cement.
