We aim to contribute to the decarbonisation of energy-intensive industries, by creating opportunities for innovative, low-carbon materials and products, specifically in the cement and steel sectors. To this end, ECOS will contribute to continued development of performance-based standards for cement and cementitious materials, as well as steel and steel-based products.

"Business as usual" is no longer an option in the face of our current climate crisis. Industry accounts for 14% of overall greenhouse gas emissions in the EU. To meet the EU’s climate neutrality target and address the ever-increasing environmental impacts from industrial production processes, we need to embark European industry on a net-zero, non-toxic environment pathway.
Due to the extraordinary circumstances, we have decided to postpone our annual conference until 29 September. Would you like to join us? Fill in the form below!
Our conference will explore how the construction sector can deliver the ambition of the EU’s Circular Economy Action Plan. The event will bring together a wide range of industry and environmental stakeholders to discuss current challenges and identify policies, laws and standards that can transform the construction sector from an environmental problem to part of the solution.
The EU Industrial Strategy and its related policy making process are a one-of-a-kind chance to transform European industry by setting climate neutrality, resource efficiency and zero-pollution objectives as drivers for innovation and competitiveness as we rebuild the economy. Only through improved environmental performance can European industry lead global markets and innovation.
