Toureen has launched a new Concrete Carbon Calculator to help project teams assess and compare the embodied carbon impact of different concrete specifications. Available through the Sustainability Hub, the tool supports informed decision-making during the early stages of a project by highlighting opportunities to reduce carbon emissions and promote more sustainable construction outcomes.

Toureen has introduced a new Concrete Carbon Calculator to help raise awareness of the embodied carbon impact associated with concrete specification decisions.

The tool provides an early indication of carbon emissions by allowing users to compare different concrete mixes based on factors including cement type, strength class and volume. By highlighting the carbon implications of specification choices, the calculator helps identify lower-carbon alternatives during the early design and specification stages of a project.

Understanding how concrete specification influences embodied carbon is an important step in delivering more sustainable outcomes. The calculator has been developed as an accessible tool to support informed discussions around material selection and to encourage consideration of carbon impacts from the outset.

Toureen continues to work proactively with its supply chain partners to deliver lower-carbon concrete mixes where specified and to reduce embodied carbon across its projects wherever possible.

The Concrete Carbon Calculator is now available through the Sustainability Hub and forms part of Toureen’s ongoing commitment to supporting practical carbon reduction initiatives across the construction process.
