HR Cement – Eco-cem Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (GGBFS)

HR Cement was born of a desire to provide a better cement to the NZ market. A wholly New Zealand owned and operated business. Key markets located in the upper North Island have been supplied from the modern manufacturing plant in Mount Maunganui since 2012.

HR Cement is committed to avoiding, reducing and mitigating any potentially adverse effects from its operational and distribution network. With a long-term focus on continual improvement in environmental performance, this EPD is a key component in providing transparent environmental credentials to all stakeholders.

This EPD is for Eco-cem, a Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag product. Eco-cem is used as a direct cement substitute in commercial and domestic concrete, precast, and masonry. Along with significantly reducing carbon emissions, Eco-cem also enhances concrete by improving its durability, reducing permeability, and increasing resistance to chemical attacks.

This EPD declares results for 1 tonne of cement. It is a ‘cradle to gate with options’ (Modules A1-A3 and A4) type where impact from raw material, transport, manufacture and distribution are presented following the European Standard for construction products, EN 15804.
