CarbonCure is celebrating half a million metric tons of CO₂ savings at concrete plants worldwide, including Lauren Concrete here in Central Texas.
For perspective, 500,000 metric tons is how much CO₂ would be saved by removing 119,000 gas-powered cars from the road for a year. It’s also equivalent to the carbon annually sequestered by 583,000 acres of forestland – enough trees to cover roughly half of Grand Canyon National Park.
We’re proud to announce that it was a truckload of concrete at our Dripping Springs plant that resulted in CarbonCure’s 500,000th metric ton of CO₂ savings. It is also worth noting that we delivered the millionth truckload of concrete made with CarbonCure back in 2020.
Congratulations to our partner in sustainable concrete, CarbonCure Technologies, on this environmental achievement.
