Ozinga’s Low-Carbon Concrete Recognized as Key Contributor for Meta’s Net-Zero Goals
Facebook’s parent group, Meta Platforms Inc., is committing to net-zero embodied carbon in their buildings by 2030. A part of this goal includes their energy-intensive data centers through North America. Ozinga had the opportunity to develop a mix design to support this objective alongside Meta’s team of researchers and a group from the University of Illinois Champaign-Urbana.
We are turning attention to our ambitious goal to achieve net zero emissions across our value chain by the end of 2030. This commitment includes addressing the indirect environmental impacts of our business, such as from the embodied carbon found in our buildings. Embodied carbon includes the upstream and downstream emissions from the manufacturing, transportation, maintenance, replacement, and decommissioning of building materials.
