Circularity Solutions for a Sustainable Future
A circular economy redefines resource use, keeping materials in circulation, reducing waste, and regenerating nature. Unlike the “take-make-dispose” model, it emphasizes reducing reliance on finite virgin resources. Our commitment to circularity is not only about reducing emissions but about rethinking how resources flow in our industry, creating value that sustains both business and the planet.
Our contribution to a circular economy
We’re redefining industry standards by integrating circular economy principles across our operations to transform our processes, products, and partnerships.
Products with sustainable attributes
We have developed concretes that incorporate lower-carbon cements, recycled aggregates, and alternative binders, all of which reduce reliance on virgin materials and lower the CO₂ footprint. Through this approach, our products minimize environmental impact throughout the production process.
Avoid use of fresh water
Water conservation is essential in a circular economy, and we are committed to minimizing freshwater use. We prioritize water recycling and alternative water sources in our operations, partnering with governments and industries to treat wastewater, all while maintaining the high quality and performance of our products.
Industrialized construction
Our prefabricated systems minimize waste, optimize material use, and allow for component reuse. By constructing off-site and assembling on-site, we reduce emissions, improve efficiency, and align with circular economy principles.
Waste management
Through Regenera, we enable a circular economy by processing CDEM into aggregates and raw materials, reducing virgin material use. Regenera also supports circularity by managing municipal and industrial waste, recovering recyclables and using non-recyclables as alternative fuel.
Regenera
Regenera, Cemex’s waste management business, fosters a circular economy by reducing reliance on virgin materials and extending product life. Collaborating across industries, Regenera integrates alternative raw materials into production, leveraging our expertise in waste reception, recovery, and recycling.
At the heart of the circular economy
The circular economy offers a unique opportunity for the cement industry to transform resource use. We have the potential to create lasting environmental value and build a sustainable future.
Eliminate waste and pollution
Our products are designed to integrate waste and byproducts from other industries, embedding them into highly durable materials. This reduces pollution and ensures that waste contributes to long-lasting, sustainable solutions.
Circulate products and materials at their highest value
Concrete’s infinite recyclability allows us to keep materials at their highest value, maximizing their lifespan and minimizing the need for virgin resources. By repurposing waste and byproducts, we reduce emissions and extend the utility of each component.
Regenerate nature
Through our sustainable products, we help create a circular economy that supports other industries and fosters environmental renewal to strengthen biodiversity and climate resilience.
