en.Wedoany.com Reported - The American Cement Association has established the Blended Cement Awards to recognize construction projects that excel in concrete performance and carbon reduction. At the time of the award's inception, low-carbon alternatives have already dominated the U.S. market, with their sales ratio to ordinary Portland cement varieties reaching 2:1.

In 2025, total cement consumption in the United States is approximately 65 million tons, a significant increase from a market share of just 5% in 2021. Industry leaders stated that these blended materials, after comprehensive testing, can ensure structural reliability while reducing the environmental impact of modern development projects.

Eligibility is open to durable structure projects completed between 2024 and 2026 that used cement supplied by association member companies. Evaluation criteria encompass multiple dimensions, including optimization of material mix ratios, project execution, and contributions to the industry. Review experts will select winners from four categories: Portland limestone cement, Portland slag cement, Portland pozzolan cement, and ternary cement. The online application portal will remain open until Friday, August 7, 2026.
