In November 2025, NEU released a new publication, The Low-Carbon Concrete Guide: Materials. The guide examines concrete’s role in global carbon emissions, life-cycle thinking and carbon quantification tools, as well as a full spectrum of binder-level strategies, including SCMs, mineral fillers, blended cements, low-carbon portland cements, and alternative cements. It also introduces aggregate, reinforcement, and water-level pathways, along with supporting concepts such as mixture optimization and durability, and advanced concrete technologies to illustrate how material choices interact with long-term performance.


The resource is designed to inform stakeholders about current market options and emerging and experimental technologies for decarbonizing the concrete industry through low-carbon materials. In this presentation, Mary Christiansen, Ph.D., LEED AP, the guide’s author, highlights its key aspects and how it is beneficial.
