Last year, despite all the COVID disruption, CEMEX UK managed to save more CO2 by using rail transport than the previous year.
In total our rail journeys saved 150,000 road movements and consequently 17.5kt of CO2 from being released into the air.
The trains carried over 2.7 million tonnes of material in 1627 journeys. Additional tonnage was also moved by sea and barge last year saving yet more CO2. All of these alternative transports save lorry movements on the roads and CO2 release into the atmosphere; being kinder to the planet and contributing to CEMEX’s overall sustainability targets.
Well done to Nick Watson, Nicola Drabble, Tracey Millen and all the Materials and Urban Solutions for their collaboration and continued support.
