Hoffmann Green optimizes the unequalled environmental performance of its H-UKR 0%
Hoffmann Green announces the publication of its new Life Cycle Inventory (LCI), which highlights the exceptional environmental performance optimization of H-UKR 0% clinker cement.
According to the results of the new LCI, the carbon footprint of H-UKR cement for France is 198 kgCO₂eq per ton, a 25% reduction from the previous level (252 kgCO₂eq/t). This LCI completes the Environmental Product Declaration published in February 20251 for European countries outside France. It is specific to France, where regulations require the carbon impact of blast furnace slag to be taken into account.
Significantly reduced carbon intensity thanks to overall optimization and an innovative process
This performance is the result of continuous optimization across the whole value chain:
- Raw material sourcing: selection of low-impact co-products, increased integration of materials from the circular economy, and optimized logistics reducing associated CO2 emissions
- Optimized industrial processes: continuous improvement of production tools to maximize yield while reducing energy losses
- Production powered by renewable energy: the production site is equipped with a fleet of solar trackers, ensuring green electricity production and directly contributing to the reduction of the carbon footprint
