The concept of sustainable development has evolved from mere rhetoric to transformative action in today's corporate landscape. Alongside energy optimization, reducing emissions through cleaner fuel processes is crucial. Innovations in plastic waste management are providing road constructors with greener construction material options. These techno-savvy green solutions are gaining momentum, shaping a more sustainable future.  #rajpathinfracon #rajpathgroup #Sustainability #sustainablesolutions #greensolutions #sustainabledevelopment #BetterTomorrow #greenerfuture #BuildingTheNation #beamingwithpride

A new technique to make low-emission cement at scale has been hailed as “an absolute miracle”. Researchers from the University of Cambridge have devised this new method, which they believe could be crucial in the transition to a net zero world. Concrete production is a significant source of #pollution, responsible for over 7% of greenhouse gas emissions. The innovative approach utilizes waste from demolished buildings, offering a sustainable solution that could potentially save billions of tonnes of carbon by 2050. #UniversityofCambridge #Sustainability #GreenTechnology #NetZero #Innovation https://lnkd.in/eWyz9aFR

Opting for a more sustainable environmentally friendly foundation solution is the way forward ♻️. Our foundation package provides a smaller environmental footprint by using less materials compared to traditional foundations. The elimination of a granular piling mat in our proposal means: ⬇️ Less waste needing removal from sites, which in turn lessens the environmental impact caused by waste transport and processing, ⬇️ Less imported aggregates, promoting local materials that help reduce transportation emissions. Our foundation design also means: ⬇️ Less Concrete use by up to 25%, leading to a considerable drop in CO2 emissions associated with its production, ⬇️ Less Steel, by up to 10%, directly lowering the energy needed for its manufacturing and consequently, its carbon footprint, Transition to a greener and more sustainable project effortlessly with SPEEDECK Foundations. #foundationsolution #lesswaste #lessmaterials #lessconcrete #lesssteel #sustainable #environment

🌍 Enabling Circular Composites Starts with Waste Codes 🚀   We're thrilled to announce that our association, along with six industry partners, has issued a joint position paper. This document highlights the need for a regulatory framework for circular #composites, starting with specific #wastecodes. 🗂️ Waste codes are crucial for developing the infrastructure needed for sustainable collection, sorting, and processing of composite materials. 🌱 Wind energy and boating are ideal candidates to kickstart the regulatory framework. These two sectors use large-scale composite components, provides a predictable flow of waste to treatment facilities. ⚡🚤 We aim to work with authorities to create a regulatory framework enhancing the #circularity of composites. Our position paper outlines six proposals for updating Europe’s waste policy. Let’s drive the future of sustainable composites together! 🌐 Find more in our position paper 👉 https://lnkd.in/eHHq6ujj CEMBUREAU European Boating Industry Epoxy Europe The European Composites Industry Association; EuCIA WindEurope

Low Carbon Materials (LCM) employs cutting-edge technology and innovative processes to create environmentally friendly, low-carbon construction materials. Their flagship product, OSTO®, is manufactured using waste materials, preventing their incineration and the immediate release of harmful greenhouse gases into the atmosphere.

 OSTO® is more than just a building material; it serves as a carbon capture and storage solution by permanently sequestering carbon dioxide within the resulting concrete, contributing to climate change mitigation. By reducing reliance on traditional carbon-intensive lightweight aggregates, OSTO® offers a sustainable alternative, enabling the construction industry to replace carbon-intensive materials in their value chain and work towards achieving net-zero targets.

 LCM's innovative approach, recognized with the Earthshot Prize, propels the construction industry toward greener and more sustainable practices. Through the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions and the utilization of waste resources, LCM actively supports the environmental conservation efforts of our planet.
