After Cement, Nigerian Firm Introduces New Concrete Variant, Calls It Game-Changing Innovation

Lafarge Plc, a top cement company in Nigeria, has introduced EcoCrete, the country's first concrete variant in the market. EcoCrete is designed to reduce CO₂ emissions by at least 20% compared to conventional CEM concrete while maintaining high performance and reliability.

The company's RMX plant has been fully converted to 100% EcoCrete production, marking the first phase of the rollout. The Group Managing Director and CEO, Lolu, stated that the introduction of EcoCrete expands the company's portfolio of sustainable building solutions and reinforces its commitment to decarbonizing Nigeria's construction sector.

EcoCrete offers superior performance across a wide range of applications, including housing, commercial buildings, roads, and bridges, helping contractors, engineers, and architects achieve sustainability goals without compromising strength, durability, or workability. Lafarge Plc continues to innovate in the industry, recently launching Nigeria's first multipurpose cement variant to reduce CO₂ emissions by 30%.
