Ultra-low carbon solutions
With clients increasingly asking for EPDs and specifying embodied carbon limits for materials, construction companies know it’s time to find alternatives.
And because cement contributes 80% of the emissions of traditional concrete, the only path forward is to replace ordinary Portland cement.
The good news? Whether you’re a concrete block manufacturer, a property developer responsible for a new commercial development, or a government agency looking to meet low-carbon ambitions, we’ve got a solution for you.
Our flagship ultra-low carbon cement
MevoCem
MevoCem is a high-performance, ultra-low carbon engineered cementitious binder. It is a 1:1 replacement for ordinary Portland cement – with up to 85% lower emissions. MevoCem delivers durability in harsh environments and maximum carbon reductions in both ready-mix and precast applications.
Currently produced at our award-winning Mevo A1 Production Facility, MevoCem represents a bold first step on the path to net zero cement.
Cost-effective solution for everyday concrete
MevoXL
MevoXL enables concrete producers to replace up to 95% of ordinary Portland cement with low-carbon supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs).
As a super accelerating concrete admixture, MevoXL delivers immediate carbon reductions across precast and ready-mix projects, without compromising product performance or turnaround times. MevoXL fits within the UK concrete code, and in most cases saves concrete producers cost compared to OPC.
