Cement Replacements that are good for the environment
A Sustainable Cement Replacement Manufacturing technology that involves no quarrying, results in virtually zero CO2 emissions, reduces landfill by utilising waste materials and significantly improves the performance of concrete.
Global climate change is one of the biggest environmental issues facing society today and there is a growing and urgent need to reduce Greenhouse Gas Emissions. The effects of Global climate change , including droughts, heavy rainfall and extreme flooding, are already being felt.
It is projected that the world currently uses 2.75 billion tonnes of Cement and will need up to 5 billon tonnes by 2025 adding a further 2 billion tons of carbon emissions to the atmosphere. We at Celtic Cement are pioneering vital sustainable low carbon alternatives.

Globally the construction industry is responsible for producing over two billion tonnes of green house gas emissions annually and these figures are rising with the increasing demand on construction materials. This is twice as much as the much criticised airline industry. How long will it be before the focus of the worlds environmentalists switches to the cement, concrete and construction industries?
The manufacture of cement is one of the most significant producers of Greenhouse Gases on the planet. Manufacturing one tonne of Portland cement releases about 1 tonne of CO2 into the atmosphere. Using Celtic Cement technology Greenhouse Gas Emissions are eliminated because the cement is manufactured from industrial by-products and by utilising renewable energy sources such as biogas and wind power CO2 emissions can be reduced to zero.
In addition 1.6 tonnes of raw material are quarried for every tonne of cement produced. The quarrying activity, combined with the necessity to granularise the quarried materials in mechanical crushers has a high demand on energy sources which results in even more CO2 emissions.
