🎥 See circular construction in action! Holcim's flagship Swiss recycling center, Recycling Center Ostschweiz (RCO) helps us build new from old. 🗽 As cities grow we need to build the equivalent of New York each month. 🏢 At Holcim we're on track to recycle 10 million tons of construction demolition materials (CDM) each year, saving primary materials. ♻ RCO uses the latest technology to recycle enough material to build 500 single-family houses each year. The advanced facility is part of our growing network of ECOCycle® recycling centers, which we're scaling to reach 150 sites by 2030. #CircularConstruction #BuildingProgress

On our mission to drive sustainable building, we’re reducing CO2 emissions by decarbonizing our formulation and energy mix. CCUS is another key lever to accelerate Holcim's decarbonization journey as we make net-zero cement a reality this decade. How does it work? We capture CO2 emissions before they are released into the atmosphere, then employ one of four pathways depending on local conditions: 🏗 Mineralization ⛽ Conversion utilization 🥤 Market utilization 📦 Storage Explore our four CCUS pathways in this video 👇 #CCUS #BuildingProgress #Decarbonization

Elevate’s new manufacturing facility in Salt Lake City is taking the LEED as the brand expands in the Western U.S. and Canada. The 60,000m2 manufacturing and distribution facility was built using Holcim’s sustainable building solutions – from foundation to rooftop. 🏗 It's the 1st project in Salt Lake City to achieve LEED v4 certification - the next-generation standard for green building design. 🏡 Built using a wide range of Holcim solutions – from ECOPlanet to Elevate. ⚡ Elevate solutions - from commercial roofing to wall and lining systems - drive energy efficiency in use and green retrofitting.

The European Patent Office in Vienna, Austria is being renovated using Holcim's sustainable building solutions from foundation to rooftop! Our ECOPact low-carbon concrete with ECOCycle® inside was used throughout. Elevate roofing was also chosen to maximize the building’s energy efficiency. Once completed, the European Patent Office will achieve BREEAM ‘Outstanding’ certification as a sustainable building. 🏢 Retrofitting an existing building reduces the environmental impact of construction. It generates less waste and reduces the need for new materials. ♻️ Renovating with circular building solutions containing recycled materials lowers construction-related CO2 emissions compared to standard materials. 💪 Using building solutions designed for energy efficiency reduces heating and cooling needs – decreasing a building’s lifetime emissions.

Holcim is deploying tomorrow’s technology in our plants today! 🏭 Advanced drone technology helps us improve onsite safety while reducing costs. 🤖 Unleashing the power of AI in our plants increases efficiency and lowers emissions. 🌐 Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) devices like smart sensors allow us to monitor our operations at an unprecedented level of detail. With our Plants of Tomorrow program, we’re creating connected, smart and energy-efficient sites. These improvements across our sites support our other decarbonization efforts, including CCUS technology and alternative energy use, as we take a science-driven approach to become a net-zero company.

💡 How can we build better with less using carbon prestressed concrete? Carbon prestressed concrete, or CPC, is high-strength concrete reinforced with prestressed carbon fibers. Holcim uses a patented technology to create thin, precast concrete plates that have the potential to change the game for low-carbon, circular construction. CPC offers material savings of up to 75% and reduces CO2 emissions by two to three times. Our CPC panels were used to build the Grüze Innovation Laboratory – one of the world's first CPC buildings. The building is modular, meaning it can be modified and expanded in the coming years. And when it’s no longer needed, it can be dismantled and the material used elsewhere.
