Less carbon. Proven concrete performance.

 
ECOPact® helps our customers reduce the carbon footprint of their buildings and infrastructure to build better with less and decarbonise construction at scale.

ECOPact is Holcim’s low-carbon concrete range designed to help reduce the embodied carbon of buildings, infrastructure and homes, while maintaining the strength, durability and reliability modern construction demands. 

ECOPact offers at least a 30% reduction in embodied carbon compared to ordinary Portland cement concrete1 with some mixes exceeding a 70% reduction in embodied carbon.

Through innovative mix design and the use of supplementary cementitious materials, ECOPact enables projects to achieve meaningful carbon reductions without compromising performance or workability. From mixes delivering substantial carbon reduction to solutions engineered for high structural performance, ECOPact provides flexible options to meet a wide range of project sustainability requirements.
