Sustainability in Construction

GCP’s Vision for a Sustainable Future 

GCP is inspired to influence how the world is built. The most positive impact we have on the environment is by developing products that make construction - and the manufacture of construction materials such as concrete - more energy efficient and less wasteful.

When we deliver products that help our customers reduce their carbon footprint and extend the life of their projects, we can make an exponential difference around the world.  

Specialty Building Materials

  • Increase energy efficiency by controlling air flow in and out of structures 
  • Improve the longevity and durability of structures, thus reducing waste 
  • Support LEED building certification 

Professional Guidance for Greater Sustainability 

Our Technical Services team advises builders on specifying and installing products that maximize energy savings and lower heating and cooling costs. Our team also works closely with cement and concrete producers, providing advice on optimizing the use and reuse of materials and selecting admixtures that improve both sustainability and durability. 

We are tackling environmental challenges by investing in:

  • Products that reduce the environmental impact of construction 
  • People who believe in protecting our air, water, and earth  
  • Processes that reduce our manufacturing footprint
