The company will showcase its core low-carbon technology, ACT (Advanced Concrete Technology), which can reduce carbon dioxide emissions by up to 70% compared to traditional cement.
Ecocem is a French low-carbon cement technology company founded in 2000, specializing in the development and promotion of innovative cement and concrete solutions that significantly reduce carbon emissions in the construction industry. ACT technology is the company's core innovation in recent years and has been applied in multiple real-world projects in France, achieving quantifiable emission reductions. According to industry media reports, Ecocem is currently building its first ACT production line at its new plant in Dunkirk, France, with an investment of €50 million, and plans to commence commercial operations by the end of 2026. The plant will have an initial annual capacity of 300,000 tons, and upon full production, will increase the total plant capacity to over one million tons. In 2025, French public authorities provided the first public funding support for this project since Ecocem's founding in 2000. Additionally, in May 2026, Ecocem obtained a European Assessment Document (EAD), enabling it to obtain CE marking through the European Technical Assessment (ETA) pathway, thereby gaining access to the European market.
The French Center for Studies and Research on the Building Industry (CERIB) is an independent technical center for the construction industry, focusing on the evaluation, certification, and research of building products and systems.
