Materials Evolution (Mevo)
During the year, SigmaRoc entered a strategic partnership with Material Evolution, an advanced materials company producing low carbon cement from industrial waste streams, to develop a range of low carbon concrete products.
Mevo has developed a process that produces an emission- free substitute for ready-mix and precast concrete. With the cement industry currently accounting for 8% of global CO2 emissions, there is growing demand for reducing its carbon footprint. Mevo’s innovative manufacturing process effectively addresses the problem of high CO2 emissions
from conventional cement production by producing cement at ambient temperatures using various waste materials and feedstocks, thereby eliminating the reliance on fossil fuels.
Trials for product development have commenced at CCP, SigmaRoc’s largest precast concrete manufacturer.

"Our partnership with Mevo marks a significant step towards an emissions-free solution for ready-mix and precast concrete. Through our trials at CCP, we are confident that these innovative products will not only meet market demand but also pave the way to transforming the cement industry and driving sustainable innovation."
