Sustainable Concrete Forum
This website is maintained by MPA - The Concrete Centre on
behalf of the Sustainable Concrete Forum and is
supported by the UK Concrete Industry and the representative
trade associations and companies who have signed up to the Concrete Industry Sustainable Construction
Strategy. This strategy includes the commitment to continual
improvement, measurement and reporting of the performance data for
the industry.
Our vision is that, by 2012, the UK concrete industry will be
recognised as the leader in sustainable construction, by taking a
dynamic role in delivering a sustainable built environment in a
manner that is profitable, socially responsible and functions
within environmental limits.
The concrete industry represents nine production sectors that
together provide ready-mixed concrete, precast concrete and on-site
batch plants. In 2008 the UK concrete industry produced 102 million
tonnes of concrete, playing a vital role in the construction of our
built environment.
