Our team of volunteers collected 51 bags of litter yesterday along sections of the N69, Barrack Road, Mungret Village and from Quinn’s Cross back to the factory. Good luck to the organisations, schools and communities who will be busy tomorrow.

Great news, the Barn Owl nest box fitted on our site in Limerick by @TheBarnOwlProj1 was used this year and the pair reared 5 chicks. A second pair nested in a crevice in our quarry. Photo by @HueySweeney

There’s lots of interest in the FUELFLEX® Pyrolyzer, a world first technology, developed by @FLSmidth, decarbonising our cement production. It’ll be on your television screens very soon, which we will keep you updated on, but until then watch this video➡️ youtu.be/5C8mRPpH2ow

Co-processing is a win-win solution for the 🇪🇺 #cement industry, reducing #waste while reducing carbon emissions. By using alternative fuels ⛽ and raw materials 🪨, we can make a positive impact and contribute to a circular Europe. More on #coprocessing: youtube.com/watch?v=eXTxvD6D…
Project Fitzwilliam overall winner of the 40th @ConcreteIreland Awards. The jury complemented the
design team, contractors and sub-contractors "Detailing is crisp, tightly controlled
and well executed, exploiting the contrast between fine precast and rougher in-situ #concrete".

ALT Building Category and Overall Winner: Project Fitzwilliam, Dublin Chosen from a total of 11 Building Category entries and 30 entries for the Overall Award. Jury Quote: ‘More a city block than a project, a terrific addition to James Street East and a nod to the random familiarity of a Georgian street, behind the loadbearing brick of the third ESB building on this site, this project reveals high drama concrete slipform construction, structural gymnastics in hanging staircases and concrete Vierendeel trusses, and finesse in the design and location of strategic precast concrete façade elements.

The breakthrough technology of carbon capture storage/utilisation simply put: 🇪🇺 cement companies capture the CO2 emitted in #cement production directly out of the cement kiln. Then they can permanently store this CO2 or put it to further use. Goal is reducing emissions to 0️⃣
Cement Manufacturers Ireland retweeted
By capturing and storing CO2 emissions, #concrete has the potential of becoming a carbon sink. Let's work towards unlocking this potential and building a #circulareconomy. 🌍🌱 Learn more about (re)carbonation and how it works 👇
