Eco Material Technologies - a CRH company - is the leading producer and supplier of sustainable cement alternatives in North America, serving over 6,000 unique customer locations with 10 million tons per year of recycled material from its 115+ sites across 46 states. The Company is the leading marketer and distributor of fly ash and other pozzolans, with the industry’s only true national footprint of logistics networks and distribution channels. Eco is the leader in non-traditional supplementary cementitious materials (“SCMs”) via beneficiation from landfilled/ponded ash, bottom ash and natural pozzolans. Eco has 9 plants in production and under construction that can produce over 4 million tons per year of sustainable, novel SCMs. Our proprietary Green Cement technology utilizes fly ash and other pozzolanic materials to produce innovative, near zero carbon products as green substitutes for portland cement in concrete. Our standard SCMs like fly ash replace ~20% of portland cement in concrete mixes all while creating a stronger, cheaper and more environmentally friendly concrete. Our portland cement replacement products – marketed under the Green Cement brand - Pozzoslag, PozzoCem and PozzoCem Vite - upgrade fly ash and natural pozzolans into 50-100% replacement products for portland cement in concrete. Portland cement is responsible for 8% of global emissions and is an especially hard source of emissions to reduce economically. Our technology is the exception, for every ton of portland cement we replace we keep one ton of CO2 out of the atmosphere. No one keeps more emissions from portland cement out of the environment than we do in the United States - nearly 7 million tons of CO2 each year. The Company also provides mission-critical utility services, including operations support, waste disposal, and environmental remediation.
