Britannia Onsite Concrete

Building a Sustainable Future

Britannia Onsite Concrete is committed to addressing the urgent requirement for a carbon-neutral, sustainable, and circular future.

Ecoblend

Leading Sustainable Concrete Solutions

The Ecoblend brand has evolved beyond lower carbon concrete solutions to encompass other essential sustainable features of ready-mix concrete:

  • Lower Carbon
  • Energy Efficiency
  • Water Conservation
  • Recycled Materials
  • Design Optimization

These products and solutions, categorized under these five sustainable attributes, collectively contribute to our vision of ‘Building a Better Future.’

Revolutionizing Environmental Impact

Traditionally, one tonne of cement production results in the emission of one tonne of CO2. However, our groundbreaking Ecoblend product range slashes this carbon footprint by an impressive 80%. That's an 80% reduction in environmental impact, setting a new standard for sustainability.

Carbon dioxide, a major component of greenhouse gases, poses a significant threat to the ozone layer. At Britannia Onsite Concrete, we are deeply committed to environmental stewardship. By offering the Ecoblend product line, we actively contribute to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, safeguarding the environment for future generations.

Additional Benefits of Low Carbon Concrete

Lower carbon concrete significantly reduces the heat of hydration, as the hydration of cement is an exothermic reaction. High temperatures in concrete can lead to stresses that may result in early-age thermal cracking. Lower carbon concrete effectively addresses this issue.

Lower carbon concrete, benefiting from reduced heat generation, typically takes slightly longer to set. This characteristic proves particularly advantageous in warm weather conditions. Various factors, such as temperature and water/cement ratio, influence setting times. However, it’s essential to note that extended setting times mean the concrete remains workable for a longer duration, necessitating careful consideration during application.
