WHY CONCRETE & ASPHALT?

Significant Global Emissions

Concrete contributes to 8% of global emissions. After water, concrete is the most widely used substance on earth. A small change can have a significant impact.

Annually 25 million tonnes of asphalt is laid for road maintenance and construction which has a high carbon footprint.  

Essential Building Materials

As essential building blocks for our cities and transportation networks, concrete and asphalt require a greener approach to production to minimise their environmental impact and ensure a sustainable future.

Innovation is Key

Our solutions provide a simple and scalable way to decarbonise the concrete and asphalt industry.

We design and manufacture carbon negative aggregates that can be easily incorporated into existing manufacturing processes.

Testimonials
“ACLA is a fantastic innovative material. It is flexible to use and easy to achieve very low carbon values through all mixes. The benefit of using this product is you can store it virtually anywhere. No special storage or equipment is required. Having used ACLA, I see it as a front-line tool against carbon level reduction in 2025.”

Dave Whitehouse, MGL Group

Head of Research and Product Development at Tynedale Roadstone Ltd.

"We initially encountered Low Carbon Materials at the Highways UK show. Upon investigating the product, we quickly realised its potential interest for Redbridge."

David Shelley

Director for Kenson Highways

“This new material will play a key role in carbon reduction and, when used in conjunction with other sustainable materials, allows the whole project to be significantly lower in emissions than standard resurfacing works.”

Alan Patrickson, Durham County Council
