Sustainability

Slag cement is a recovered material from the iron production process and because of this, reduces the environmental impact of concrete mixtures. Additionally, slag cement is very effective in reducing permeability and increasing durability in concrete.

LCA Calculator

The LCA calculator allows you to enter custom concrete mixes and then substitute varying amounts of slag cement through a simple dashboard interface.

Environmental Product Declaration

The growing need to reduce the carbon impact of concrete has lead the SCA to assist in creating an Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) for slag cement. The EPD provides quantifiable environmental data on the materials, transportation and processing impacts in the production of slag cement.
