FUTURECEM® - Low carbon cement
The history of FUTURECEM® begins almost 20 years ago, when researchers from the Research and Quality Center of the Cementir Group discovered the synergy between some types of calcined clay and limestone which allowed to replace clinker with a reduction in CO2 emissions ensuring the same performance.
Thus the technology was born as the result of extensive research covering the entire value chain.
A milestone in the development of FUTURECEM® was the Danish project Green Concrete II, focused on the green transformation of cement and concrete production, which ended in 2019.
FUTURECEM® is recognized as a cutting-edge solution for clinker reduction as described in the roadmap for a "Low-carbon transition in the cement industry" of the International Energy Agency (2018), and in the Cembureau document "Cementing the European Green Deal" (2020).
This technology has also been recognized into the European standard EN 197-5 for the production of II / CM cements with replacement of clinker up to 50%.
Marketing began in January 2021, in Denmark, positioning the Cementir Group as a pioneer in industrial production.
FUTURECEM® is the heart of the innovation process of the Cementir Group: our ambition is to include product innovation in our offer of solutions that allow to achieve the challenging objectives towards greater sustainability not only for the Cementir Group, but also to its customers.
By 2030, estimated sales of cements with FUTURECEM® will reach approximately 51% of total volumes sold in Europe and 60% of grey cement volumes.
FUTURECEM® also allows the production of Ultra High Performance Concrete.
The new low carbon cement sold from 2021 in Denmark and by 2030 throughout Europe.
