「As one measure toward achieving carbon neutrality, we are promoting initiatives to expand the use of blended cement and supplementary cementitious materials. For ordinary Portland cement, for which the JIS standard was revised, we are preparing the necessary environment to increase minor blended components and promoting the development of new blended cement using finely ground limestone. We are also focusing on developing optimal technologies for capturing CO₂ from cement kiln exhaust gas and technologies for the effective utilization of CO₂.」
In addition to conventional quality, cost and environmental measures, specific development targets were presented, including compliance with blended cement standards, new blended cement using finely ground limestone, and CO₂ capture and utilization technologies. - FY2025RestatedAnnual report
