Northumbrian Water has made a concrete commitment to reduce carbon in its £3.6bn investment programme.


The water company has pledged to stop the use of CEM1 - the most carbon-intensive type of concrete – on its sites, delivering significant environmental benefits.


Concrete is among the most carbon-intensive materials used in construction, and removing CEM1 from the maintenance and enhancement of its assets is already seeing real-world reductions of up to 54% embodied carbon – the lifetime emissions of a building or construction product.
