ESG
We are a choice made green and compliant
Let’s be frank: Concrete does not come with a light carbon footprint. And let’s face it: Ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) is an unavoidable foundation for the green energy transition with renewable wind energy as a safe and sustainable business case.
That is basically the equation.
For manufacturers, investors, and project owners there are still choices to be made though. For those who care to optimize sustainability Y-MatTec® and our products offer some compelling added value that may prove decisive in your research and reporting in ESG matters (environmental, social, governance).
As a trusted partner to industry leading businesses with a second-to-none heritage – Vestas Wind Systems, Siemens Gamesa, FoundOcean, and Oestermark Grouting to mention just a few – Y-MatTec® is a good company you can rely on.
In compliance with national and EU legislation, as well as business partner demand, we have started our ESG-reporting in 2024. Once published be sure to find our report on environmental, social, and governance matters on our website and LinkedIn profile.
In advance, we promise our ESG reporting to be a combination of results achieved so far as well as ambitions to go above and beyond in the future.
Meanwhile, please find below some headlines likely to be unfolded once we publish our first ever ESG report.
ESG
Environmental
As a testament to our dedication to more sustainable solutions in UHPC we asked the renowned EPD Hub (Environmental Product Declaration) to test and verify the carbon footprint of our Y-MatTec G-2000® on- and offshore grouting material.
The validation conducted in accordance with EN and ISO standards as a cradle-to-gate test demonstrated a 3.62-3.76 kgCO2e result which Is remarkably low in the industry where 6.0 kgCO2e values or more for grouting material is not common.
With a unique pyrolysis process enabling us to cut +10% of the cement in UHPC a greener choice for wind turbine foundations is emerging.
With our discoveries in research and development, currently being patent processed, we have developed the first ever ultra-high-performance concrete with carbon and industrial waste capture properties.
The groundbreaking product will go to market as the international patent process and DNV-certification for on- and offshore use is finalized.
The revolutionizing ultra-high-performance concrete with properties unlike any other will likely go to market in 2025.
