Why invest in Cementir?
-
Strong commitment to sustainability
- We have set a sustainability strategy aimed at reducing CO2 emissions, defining a Roadmap to 2030 and committing 77 million euros to sustainability projects in the 2026-2028 Industrial Plan. These include: the implementation of carbon capture and storage (CCS) technology in Aalborg, Denmark, through the ACCSION project;
reducing the clinker content in cement; developing low‑carbon cements such as FUTURECEM® and D‑Carb®; and expanding blended cements based on supplementary cementitious materials such as fly ash, pozzolana and slag. Additional drivers include the increasing use of alternative fuels and alternative energy sources, optimisation of thermal efficiency, and the recycling and reuse of materials. In February 2024, the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) validated both near and long term decarbonization targets of Cementir, judged consistent with the 1.5°C scenario. In addition, SBTi also approved Cementir’s overall net-zero emissions target by 2050.
