Dyckerhoff says that the CSC's recent update to version 2.1 of its standard, means that additional evidence and more detailed documentation is now required.
The Concrete Sustainability Council (CSC) promotes transparency about the concrete manufacturing process and its value chain as well as the effects on the social and ecological environment. The CSC certification is designed to lead to a continuous increase in the sustainable management of the cement, raw material and concrete industries. The industry is thus making its contribution to sustainable building in Germany.
