Helping you on the road to net zero

The Global Cement and Concrete Association has set out targets to reach net zero emissions by 2050, and with cement and concrete manufacture being responsible for 7% of global CO2 emissions*, they have a very long road to travel.

As the most used man-made building material in the world right now, concrete is everywhere. It boasts amazing benefits of strength, durability, resilience, safety and affordability, and is fundamentally shaping our world.

This may sound like a problem. Its not. For members of the construction and landscaping industries, this presents an opportunity.

With the demolition or replacement of any concrete buildings, paths or structures comes tonnes of surplus concrete waste. Our CR300 micro crusher can crush up to 6 tonnes of this concrete waste an hour into a reusable material. The crushed concrete makes for the perfect hardcore – often bought in to fill holes, underpin foundations or add support.

So instead of buying in bags of ‘new’ hardcore, why not crush the pile of concrete waste and use this? Saving you the cost and CO2 of waste disposal, and of buying in new hardcore, but more importantly for the race to net zero, this is recycling an otherwise waste product and therefore reducing the amount of waste in the concrete industry.

If you’d like to see our crusher in action, just get in touch, we’d love to arrange a demo.
