Cemex Philippines (CHP) achieved a 50% reduction in CO₂ emissions generated by its two cement subsidiaries, Solid Cement Corporation and APO Cement Corporation, from 1990-2022. Based on public declarations, this is the highest CO₂ emissions reduction in the industry, establishing Cemex’s commitment to decarbonising its operations through its Future in Action program.

From 2020 to 2022 alone, CHP reduced 18% of its net CO₂ emissions, representing 36% of the total CO₂ reduction since 1990, demonstrating the company’s accelerated efforts to further reduce its cement operations emissions.

“This milestone CO₂ reduction was possible because of our team’s high commitment to achieve net zero. We are on track to meet our ambition of less than 430kg of net CO₂ per ton of cement by 2030 and deliver net-zero CO₂ concrete by 2050,” commented Luis Franco, Cemex Philippines President, and CEO.
