Cement is essential
for building our world
fortera provides a pathway
to a zero CO₂ future

4 BILLION
Tonnes of Cement Per Year
3.5 BILLION
Tonnes of CO₂ Emitted Per Year
Fortera captures CO₂ directly emitted from the cement plant, turning a problem into a product.
60%
FEWER EMISSIONS THAN TRADITIONAL CEMENT WITH A REALISTIC PATHWAY TO ZERO CO₂
A CLEANER WAY TO MAKE A FAMILIAR MATERIAL
Similar performance, workability, and curing characteristics as traditional cement.
SEAMLESS INTEGRATION
AT EXISTING
CEMENT SITES
Tapping into the same quarries, grinders, and kilns already in use at every cement plant.
A FUNDAMENTALLY BETTER CEMENT
TO MANUFACTURE USING THE SAME INFRASTRUCTURE
ONE INPUT,
LOWER KILN TEMPERATURES,
SIMPLIFIED PRODUCTION
Fortera cement
is made from
limestone only
Portland cement is a calcined blend of limestone, silica, iron oxide, gypsum and alumina. By reducing the inputs to just limestone, kilns can operate at lower temperatures and handle higher throughputs at the same scale.
GLOBAL IMPACT
Working within the cement industry and the existing infrastructure, Fortera produces a lower cost product that can be sold in all markets. For every tonne of Fortera cement used, almost half a tonne of CO₂ is permanently stored in our built environment.
