Why Think Green for Construction?

Concrete is the world’s most used building material. Developing a green concrete concept in the concrete industry is critical to a more sustainable world.
Cement is the most important component in the production of concrete. It is one of the largest contributors to CO2 emissions, contributing significantly to the carbon footprint. The most significant step toward sustainable concrete is to replace some cement with a viable byproduct, such as ground-granulated blast furnace slag (Slag).
Slag is a waste byproduct of the steel industry, but it can also be used to replace cement. Currently, Gotham RM can produce concrete with an average of 30%–40% cement replacement with slag, with some mixes requiring 50%–75% cement replacement.
According to studies, using slag as a cement replacement material improves concrete quality. Additionally, it reduces the carbon footprint of concrete as well as greenhouse gas emissions.
