Cemex news

The WHC has recently granted CEMEX the 2020 Corporate Conservation Leadership Award, honouring the company's overall achievement in biodiversity conservation efforts.

For the past 10 years, CEMEX and the CEMEX-Tecnológico de Monterrey Centre for Sustainable Development have presented the award to support high-impact projects that promote economic growth and social commitment.

The companies have announced the creation of Wallex, a company focused on design and engineering, manufacturing and on-site installation of offsite panelised and self-supporting construction systems.

The company has announced that it has earned 11 awards from the National Stone, Sand and Gravel Association (NSSGA), recognising the ongoing and longstanding commitments to environmental excellence and positive community relations at its aggregate operations.

As part of its ambition to build the most sustainable high speed railway in the world, HS2 contractors in London have begun using Vertua, a new low carbon concrete product which provides a reduction of 42% in CO2 in comparison to a standard concrete.

The company has been included in the ‘FORTUNE 2020 Change the World’ list, which highlights companies around the world that have generated a social impact through activities that are part of their business strategy.

The companies have partnered up to develop an affordable carbon capture solution by 2021.

The company has announced the framework of ‘Operation Resilience,’ its medium-term strategy, that incorporates the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic and lays out a plan to enhance EBITDA growth over the next three years.

The company has welcomed the announcement from the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) that the undertakings offered by Breedon in connection with its completed acquisition of certain assets and operations from CEMEX might be acceptable.

The company’s Vertua concrete range has been used as part of the construction of the new Cryfield residences for the University of Warwick.
