The cement and concrete sector calls for material neutrality in legislation
There is huge potential in design improvements and in integration of different construction materials in the built environment to achieve energy efficiency and mitigation of CO2 emissions.
While all actors in the construction market need to cooperate and complement each oth
er, policymakers have the responsibility to create a level playing field to all building materials.
Guiding principles to a fair legal framework must include: material neutrality, accurate and correct database, comparisons at the building level over full life cycle of the building.
The cement and concrete sector is ready to engage with policymakers to ensure a level playing field and reaches out to other material producers to achieve this goal.
