In its recently-published Corporate Sustainable Development Report 2011, Holcim tracks its progress in achieving its sustainability targets. For the company’s new CEO, Bernard Fontana, sustainable development remains at the core of the group’s operations worldwide.
Holcim’s current energy policies place the reduction of greenhouse gases (GHG) at the heart of the company’s sustainability drive. While the cement producer is keen to play its part in contributing to global GHG reduction efforts, it acknowledges that energy security and cost cutting are powerful factors in lowering its CO2 emissions.
