Vertua® Ready-Mix Concrete with Recycled Aggregates in Germany

As part of its global decarbonisation strategy “Future in Action”, Cemex is promoting resource-saving recycling solutions. As it is the case in the metropolitan market of Berlin, Germany:

Cemex in Germany has already converted eight of its 14 ready-mix concrete plants in the Berlin-Brandenburg region to offer concrete with recycled aggregates: the sites in Spandau, Hohenschönhausen, Kreuzberg, Bernau, Finowfurt, Velten, Schönefeld and Grünheide are technically capable of producing and supplying concrete with recycled aggregates. The experts of Cemex are pleased to advise interested parties on the application possibilities and explain the technical details.

Concrete with recycled aggregates contains aggregates from professionally processed mineral construction waste, essentially concrete fragments that have been brought to the required particle sizes in crushers and impact mills – concrete is a material that can be recycled again and again. Concretes with recycled aggregates are subject to the same requirements as conventional ready-mix concretes and show identical fresh and hardened concrete properties.
