The fight against climate change has long been a key priority for Cementos Molins and is central to both our business strategy today, and more importantly how we plan to move forward as a company.
We have made a commitment to society, that by 2050 the concrete we produce will be carbon neutral.


What are our 2030 goals?
- Ensure that 55% of all electricity consumption comes from renewable sources
- 20% reduction in CO2 emissions compared to 2020
- Emissions factor of <500 kg net CO2/t cementitious
Taking measures to actively cut CO2 emissions throughout the entire value chain. These include:
- Replacing 40% of fossil fuels with alternative fuels
- Maximising energy efficiency
- Generating renewable electricity
- Substituting the clinker in cement by producing other more environmentally friendly cement products
How will we achieve this?
Using biomass as a fuel
Using biomass to fuel our kilns allows us to reduce our fossil fuel consumption, and as a result, our emissions. In Argentina, we use sunflower hulls and peanut shells, in Uruguay rice husks and in Tunisia olive stones.
Generating electricity via renewable sources.
The construction of a 20MW photovoltaic solar farm will provide 50% of the energy required to power the San Luis plant in Argentina.
Energy efficiency
Propamsa, a company that forms part of Cementos Molins, actively contributes to the sustainability of our environment with numerous solutions. For example, through the External Thermal Insulation Composite System (ETICS), a thermal insulation system that improves the energy efficiency of buildings.
