Which Emerging Market Trends Are Altering The Supplementary Cementitious Materials Industry?
Top corporations in the secondary cementitious materials market are innovating technologically superior products like slag cement, which enhances concrete's overall resilience, longevity, and environmental friendliness by decreasing greenhouse gas discharges and using industrial waste products as alternative adhesives. For instance, in June 2020, Alcemy, a German technological firm specializing in AI-powered software for reducing carbon emissions in cement and concrete industries, teamed up with Spenner GmbH to introduce 'CEM X,' a eco-friendly cement substitute that slashes carbon emissions by 65%. 'CEM X', managed with Alcemy's sophisticated quality control software, allows immediate quality forecasts and features a low-clinker structure, comprising less than 30% clinker as opposed to the traditional 80%. The composition of the product comprises 33% granulated blast furnace slag and 37% limestone filler, thus providing an environmentally friendly cement alternative without sacrificing efficiency. This partnership signifies a considerable progression in making the cement industry greener, while simultaneously ensuring cost-effectiveness and upholding quality standards.
