Climate Earth

We are excited to announce that Climate Earth™ and CarbiCrete™ have partnered to release the first-ever Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) for CarbiCrete’s cement-free concrete masonry units (CMUs)! What Sets This EPD Apart? ✔️ 20x Lower Global Warming Potential (GWP): CarbiCrete’s CMUs achieve a remarkable GWP of 11.7 kg CO₂ per m³, compared to the industry average of over 200. ✔️ Cement-Free Innovation: By replacing cement with steel slag and curing with CO₂, CarbiCrete significantly reduces emissions while delivering the quality and durability the industry depends on.

🌍 Navigating Global EPD Standards with Climate Earth's EPD Generator™ 🌍 Climate Earth's EPD Generator™ is live in 17 countries worldwide, with more going live soon. As regulations around Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) evolve globally, concrete producers face growing pressure to meet diverse and complex standards. From the EU’s Construction Products Regulation (CPR), requiring comprehensive life cycle reporting, to state-specific mandates like CALGreen in California and “Buy Clean” policies in the U.S., each region comes with its own set of rules and nuances. Our platform is designed to help producers navigate these differences effortlessly, creating compliant, verified EPDs for every market. Wherever you operate, Climate Earth ensures you stay ahead of regulatory updates while building trust with your customers. Let us help you simplify compliance and lead in sustainable concrete: https://lnkd.in/gf8NYd6Y #Concrete #EPDs #ClimateEarth #Sustainability

With our Environmental Product Declaration, generated by Climate Earth, officially available, CarbiCrete is showing that you don't need #cement to built resilient structures.   "EPDs provide precise and transparent #data to architects, engineers and builders when choosing #materials vital to meeting #sustainability goals. The Climate Earth certification gives #Montreal-based CarbiCrete the equivalent of a manufacturing seal of approval for its cement-free CMUs."   Read more on CarbiCrete's EPD and plans for expansion from Sustainable Biz Canada:

Celebrating a Milestone! 🎉 In 2013, Climate Earth launched the world's first EPD Generator™, setting a new standard for environmental transparency. Fast forward to 2024, we’re thrilled to announce that we’ve now created over 78,403 EPDs—nearly half of all EPDs globally! 🚀 EPDs are now a cornerstone of low-carbon concrete, helping concrete producers meet evolving regulations and market demands. With 1,334+ live plants worldwide, we’re proud to lead the charge, empowering producers to stay ahead with innovative solutions. Here's to building a sustainable future—one EPD at a time. 🌍 #Sustainability #EPDs #Concrete

The recently released Environmental Product Descriptions from Bridgewater Ready Mix building on Climate Earth’s leading EPD generator gives customers the ability to calculate embodied carbon to meet demands for more sustainable concrete solutions. https://lnkd.in/eBPVtUby

Federal Highway Administration's Fall Sustainable Pavement Technical Working Group (SPTWG) was a success! We're thrilled that our Director of LCA and EPD Services, Hossein Tavakoli, had the opportunity to attend and contribute to these critical conversations. A special thank you to the Federal Highway Administration team for organizing this impactful meeting and to Rogers Group Inc. for hosting us at their headquarters in Nashville, TN. Hossein also joined an incredible field visit to the Gallatin Quarry, where valuable insights were shared. We’re proud to be part of conversations advancing sustainability! 🌍

Climate Earth is proud to have partnered with the Concrete Masonry & Hardscapes Association (CMHA) to make this milestone a reality! 🌍 This collaboration brought together data from 35 producers nationwide to develop the first-ever Industry-Average Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) for Concrete Masonry Units in the U.S. With third-party verification by ASTM International, this EPD sets a new benchmark for transparency and sustainability in the masonry industry. Congratulations to CMHA for their leadership and vision in driving positive change! 👏 🔗 https://bit.ly/40VK3Bg #Sustainability #ConcreteMasonry #EPD #ConstructionInnovation #ClimateEarth

Don’t forget to register for tomorrow’s webinar on why data quality matters on EPDs. With more and more companies generating EPDs, relying on average data from LCA databases only is not enough to demonstrate the accurate environmental profile of a product. Join us to learn the basics of ensuring construction products use relevant and representative data that captures the uniqueness of each manufacturing process. #LCA #EPD #Webinar
