CTS Cement is the leading manufacturer of calcium sulfoaluminate (CSA) cement in North America. Nick de Ocampo, Director of Sustainability at CTS Cement, will discuss the company’s history, development, and implementation of CSA cement throughout the years. The webinar will highlight the performance characteristics that make CSA cements an excellent choice for high-performance, long-lasting concrete solutions. Because of the increased performance, CSA cements enable resilient concrete pavements and structures, and have lower embodied carbon than the industry standard as a result of the optimal manufacturing conditions utilized to create CSA cement. Finally, CTS Cement produces tens of thousands of tons of CSA cement annually, making it an at-scale, market-ready product.
