CEVO
Concrete Evolution.
CEVO is a range of low carbon concretes with key performance credentials including increased durability, increased early age strength and reduced heat of hydration. Bespoke designs enabling embodied carbon reductions from 30% and greater versus traditional concrete (CEM I).
Low Carbon concretes have similar properties, durability, performance, and quality of use, equivalent to those of conventional concrete while emitting at least 30% less carbon.
Roadstone and its parent company, CRH, has an ambition to reach net zero by 2050.
CRH has set an industry-leading target to reduce absolute CO2 emissions across the Group by 30% by 2030 (from a 2021 baseline). The Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) has validated CRH’s near-term science-based carbon emissions reduction targets in line with a 1.5°C pathway.
Our LCCs are identified by our CEVO brand and are benchmarked into three ratings, B, A and A+, based on CO2 percentage reductions, classified through our rating system.
Low carbon concrete products are aligned to our new rating system, R-Score, to demonstrate carbon reductions in concrete mixes. Put simply, a concrete mix with a rating of B or better is a CEVO low carbon concrete. We establish the R-Score of each mix through our carbon footprint calculator and provide the mix specific embodied carbon values via our carbon footprint reports. Find out more here hyperlink to Carbon footprint report.
CEVO Lower Carbon concrete range is available in three types determined by the CO2 reductions they achieve. Using R-Score, application type and performance requirements we can tailor our CEVO products to fit your performance needs while also providing a low carbon solution and R-Score rating

Reduced carbon footprint
Low carbon concrete is designed to reduce CO2 emissions during production by using alternative materials.Durability
Low carbon concrete can be as durable and long-lasting as traditional concrete, which is an essential attribute for construction materials.Strength
Low carbon concrete can achieve comparable strength to traditional concrete, depending on the specific mix design and the intended application.Versatility
Low carbon concrete can be used in a wide variety of applications, including structural and non-structural uses, easy to use & place & suitable for pumping.Availability
Low carbon concrete options are available nationwide from Roadstone RMC locations.
