Canada: CSA Group has announced the registration of its first environmental product declaration (EPD) by the Cement Association of Canada. The registration is for general use and Portland-limestone cements.
"Cement is used virtually exclusively to make concrete, a material that is literally the foundation of modern society and that will play a key role in the transition to a low carbon and climate resilient future," said Michael McSweeney, President and CEO of the Cement Association of Canada. "The cement and concrete industry is committed to doing all it can to help in this transition. EPDs are an important tool for providing data and transparency on materials."
