Description:

As part of reducing our carbon footprint, Brampton Brick Limited (BBL) is looking to reduce greenhouse gases at their Hillsdale facility. The project is working with a cement supplier conducting a plant pilot study. The cement sequesters and uses carbon dioxide instead of water as a binding agent. The project will involve physical testing on our products to ensure that aesthetics, product performance and CSA standards are maintained with the new cement.
