Through around ten talks sessions, six themes focussing on the future of the material in its market have been selected to elicit thought and debate:

 

  • Decarbonisation issues: ambitions and timeline of the French Climate Plan, the National low carbon Strategy, RE 2020 and international labels.
  • The recipes of concrete to decarbonise the industry: the clinker factor, new low-carbon binders, additives in concrete (slag, pozzolans, ternary cements, etc.) exemplary projects using low-carbon concrete, etc.
  • Low-carbon logistics: short delivery channels, freight, personal accounts from organisations working in cement, ready-mix, pre-cast solutions, etc.
  • The process: cutting energy consumption, new low-carbon cement production units, alternative fuels, industrial investment, low-temperature processes, etc.
  • The circular economy: responsible sourcing, recycling, reuse, quarry reorganisation, production of recycled aggregates, recovery of spoil, feedback on worksites, etc.
  • Innovations: formulations, the role of admixtures for the use of low-carbon concrete, off-site and pre-cast concrete construction methods, modular construction, 3D printed concrete, etc.
