In 2020 Cemex UK launched the UK’s first ready mixed concrete that was a CarbonNeutral® product – our Vertua® Low Carbon Concrete Range.

Cemex is committed to global sustainability goals. That’s why the Vertua® brand has now EVOLVED since the original launch!

Vertua is now not just lower carbon concrete, it is a portfolio of sustainable products that leverage cutting-edge technology and innovation to help our customer meet their construction needs sustainably.

Vertua products can help measure the sustainable impact of projects and each product has a fact label that outlines the specific characteristics of its environmental impact and benefits. This can be reflected both in the product manufacturing process and in the useful life of the project.

The Vertua brand now covers five sustainability attributes:

• lower carbon
• energy efficiency,
• water management
• recycled materials
• design optimisation

These attributes have been identified in line with Cemex’s dedicated climate action strategy, Future in Action, which targets operation as a net-zero company globally by 2050.
