- TITAN will implement meca\u00ae clay technology at its Patras plant in Greece.
- Pilot activities are planned for 2026 with further expansion to follow.
- The goal is a clinker-to-cement ratio below 40\% compared to 93\% in Original Portland Cement.
- The collaboration supports TITAN's ambition for net-zero concrete by 2050.
Partnership Overview
TITAN Group and thyssenkrupp Polysius have formed a strategic partnership to advance low-carbon cement production using Polysius’ meca® clay technology. This collaboration aims to significantly reduce CO₂ emissions in cement manufacturing.
Technology Implementation
The meca® clay technology activates alternative cementitious materials to partially replace clinker, the primary source of CO₂ emissions in cement production. TITAN plans to implement this technology at its Patras cement plant in Greece, with pilot activities scheduled for 2026 and further expansion anticipated.
Emission Reduction Goals
The initiative targets a clinker-to-cement ratio below 40%, a significant reduction from the 93% found in Original Portland Cement. This effort is part of TITAN’s broader strategy to enhance its green cement portfolio and contribute to sustainable building materials.
Strategic Objectives
The collaboration supports TITAN’s ambition to achieve net-zero concrete by 2050, aligning with global climate goals. By combining TITAN’s expertise with thyssenkrupp Polysius’ technological capabilities, the partnership aims to accelerate the development of high-performance, low-clinker materials for European and US markets.
