Sustainable Concrete Plant
Guidelines
The Sustainable Concrete Plant Guidelines provide a system by which concrete
producers can implement sustainability strategies and practices to lower their
overall footprint. The Guidelines form the basis for the NRMCA Sustainable
Concrete Plant Certification program. The Certification provides a quantitative,
performance-based metric, to allow ready mixed concrete producers to demonstrate
excellence in sustainable development. The Certification, coupled with the
guidelines, provide ready mixed concrete producers with specific guidance to
assess their production practices and implement sustainability strategies that
will ultimately lower their overall footprint.
To certify, plant personnel use the Guidelines to rate a plant’s level of
sustainability within different credit categories. Plants can achieve between 0
and 100 points depending on how many sustainability credits are achieved and
their level of performance within each credit.
The Guidelines were developed through generous
funding from the RMC Research & Education Foundation. The development process
was managed by NRMCA.
