Heidelberg Materials North America is pleased to announce it has been selected for award negotiation to receive up to $5 million in funding from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to create a robust, web-based tool that can help ready-mix concrete, cement and aggregate facilities to quickly produce high-quality Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs). 

The grants are part of EPA’s Reducing Embodied Greenhouse Gas Emissions for Construction Materials and Products Grant. The company was among a selection of 38 grant recipients across the country, totaling nearly $160 million, to support efforts to report and reduce climate pollution from the manufacturing of construction materials and products.

“With this funding, Heidelberg Materials can accelerate the push for more sustainable construction materials and transparency across the industry while also helping our customers make more informed decisions when choosing products with a lower carbon footprint,” said Chris Ward, President & CEO of Heidelberg Materials North America. 

This latest acknowledgement highlights Heidelberg Materials North America’s ongoing leadership in decarbonizing the industry and reflects its strong commitment to growing its portfolio of more sustainable products, digital technologies and customer-focused solutions.
