Roadstone Unveils CEVO: A Range of Low Carbon Concretes
25.10.24
CEVO

Roadstone is proud to announce the launch of CEVO, an innovative range of low carbon concretes designed to meet the demands of a sustainable future. CEVO concretes boast increased durability, early age strength, and reduced heat of hydration, making them a superior choice for modern construction needs. Each bespoke mix enables a reduction in embodied carbon by 30% or more compared to traditional concrete (CEM I).

CEVO concretes are designed to offer similar properties, durability, and performance as conventional concrete, while significantly reducing carbon emissions. This aligns with Roadstone and CRH’s, ambitious goal of reaching net zero by 2050.

A key feature of the CEVO range is its alignment with Roadstone’s new rating system, R-Score, which quantifies carbon reductions in concrete mixes. Concretes that achieve a rating of B or better are classified as CEVO low carbon concretes. The R-Score is established using our proprietary carbon footprint calculator, and specific embodied carbon values for each mix are provided via our detailed carbon footprint reports. 

The CEVO range is available in three types, each distinguished by the level of CO2 reduction they achieve. By using the R-Score, along with application type and performance requirements, we tailor our CEVO products to fit your specific performance needs while providing a sustainable low carbon solution.

Introducing CEVO+ with Real-Time Concrete Monitoring

Roadstone is also excited to introduce CEVO+, a cutting-edge solution for intelligent temperature and strength monitoring in concrete. CEVO+ leverages digital and AI technology to enable concrete structures to be built faster, smarter, and more safely.

Concrete maturity monitoring, which utilizes sensors embedded into the concrete, generates real-time strength and temperature data. This technology provides precise, actionable data, ensuring complete control over the building process and material specifications. The real-time data transmitted from these on-site embedded sensors offers irrefutable data management, enhancing the efficiency and safety of construction projects.
