Oxara<\/a>, KIBAG<\/a> and Holcim Switzerland<\/a> are joining forces to establish the cement substitute Oxacrete Oulesse across the Swiss construction market, according to a press release<\/a>. According to the press release, cement production accounts for around 5 percent of annual greenhouse gas emissions in Switzerland. The collaboration between Oxara, based in Dietikon, KIBAG in Zurich and Holcim in Zug addresses the urgent need for scalable, circular and decarbonizing technologies. After validating the Oulesse technology and evaluating the market potential of this solution, Oxara, KIBAG and Holcim are now planning to officially enter the market together.<\/p>\n

With Oxacrete Oulesse, the construction industry can be made more sustainable by promoting the reuse of demolition materials and closing loops. This can significantly reduce the environmental impact of building materials and serve up to 10 percent of the Swiss concrete market. The production of Oxacrete Oulesse uses recycled materials and the binder offers a low-carbon alternative to conventional cement.<\/p>\n

“This partnership is a further step towards achieving our sustainability goals,” says Clemens W\u00f6gerbauer, Head Commercial and Sustainability at Holcim Switzerland. Holcim has already developed a framework for decarbonizing the cement industry in 2022 with experts from science, civil society and industry. This emerged from a partnership with the British Science Based Targets Initiative(SBTi<\/a>). “We have visionary and innovative partners at our side who fit perfectly with our mission: To combine a circular economy with decarbonization,” W\u00f6gerbauer continues.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
