#CBAM is entering the implementation phase.
How will emissions be calculated?
How will verification work?
Join the European Commission’s CBAM information session on 19 March (10:00–11:30 CET) with DG Taxud experts.

Strategic autonomy isn’t abstract.
It’s the roads that move goods. 🛣️
The bridges that connect regions. 🌉
The energy systems that keep Europe running. 🔋
That’s what #cement quietly delivers every day.
Europe’s resilience starts with strong foundations.
Europe’s climate ambition is clear.
But will the investments happen in Europe?
Deep #decarbonisation needs a business case:
✔ Predictable #ETS
✔ Watertight #CBAM + export solution
✔ Lower energy costs
✔ Demand for low-carbon materials
Climate & competitiveness move together.

⚖️ #CBAM levels the playing field for imports.
📈 Imports up.
📉 Exports down.
And EU producers carry full #ETS costs on global markets.
If we want investment and #decarbonisation in Europe 🇪🇺, CBAM must address exports too.
Europe says it wants industrial #decarbonisation.
Now the next EU budget has to prove it.
In The Parliament Magazine, our Public Affairs & Comms Director Cliona Cunningham argues the next #MFF must turn climate ambition into real industrial investment.

⚙️In Antwerp today, President @vonderleyen.ec.europa.eu said “Decarbonisation and competitiveness can go hand in hand.”
For #cement: housebuilding & infrastructure, lower energy costs, a level playing field on carbon & the right conditions for CCUS.

We commented on recent media coverage related to the #EUETS. We reiterate our support both for the EU ETS and #CBAM as key drivers of #decarbonisation and underline the importance of an orderly review focused on long-term investment and #competitiveness.

#Coprocessing turns non-recyclable waste into energy and materials, cutting landfill, reducing fossil fuel use and supporting local economies. #Cement kilns are already part of the solution. #WasteManagement

Ever wondered what Europe is built on? 🤔
Homes, metros, bridges, wind farms, data centres… it all starts with #cement.
A competitive transition needs competitive foundations.
✨ Happy New Year!
We’re kicking off 2026 ready to work with the Cypriot EU Council Presidency on the big files shaping Europe’s clean industrial transition; CBAM, energy, CO₂ infrastructure, funding & skills.
Here’s to a year of progress and collaboration. 🌍💪

#Cement
#Cement is a driver for change.
Cement Europe stands for innovation, circularity, and progress.
We’re rethinking how we build, with low-carbon materials, new technologies, and climate ambition at our core.
We’re not only part of the transition, we’re driving it.
🏗️ For centuries, #cement has built Europe; homes, schools, infrastructure.
Our story is one of reliability and innovation.
We are Cement Europe, a new identity built on a legacy of strength.
🎥 Watch our story unfold.

#CleanIndustrialDeal #CBAM
Last week, we met with MEP Sean Kelly to talk about the future of Europe’s #cement sector.
At the heart of the discussion: a practical and efficient cement labelling system to unlock lead markets for low-carbon materials, to support the decarbonisation of our sector.

📅 30 Sept | Tech for Climate Europe
Our PA Director Cliona Cunningham will join the Industrial Competitiveness panel.
With 100+ #decarbonisation projects, the EU #cement industry is ready to deliver, if the right policy conditions are in place.
techforclimateaction.com/europe/
#Cement takes up a small share of costs (5–15%) but at the same time the backbone of homes, schools and hospitals.
Lead markets for low-carbon cement mean Europe builds smarter, greener and more affordable places to live.

Future-ready #cement industry needs future-ready #skills.
Together with @efbww.bsky.social , we mapped skills for 2030 & 2050.
Our recommendations find that training, dialogue and safe digitalisation are key.
🔗 healthy-workplaces.osha.europa.eu/en/media-cen...
The #cement sector is transforming. Are training systems ready?
#CementSkills2030 shows:
🧠 Gaps in CCUS, digital, hydrogen skills
🔧 Shortages in technician training
🌍 Uneven access across Member States
🎓 Providers must modernise fast.
