What do concrete people do for the community ?
• Agricultural efficiency
• Horticultural efficiency
• Leisure and sports facilities
• Cultural centres
• Places to work

• Local materials and products minimise carbon footprint – exporting environmental and social costs outside Europe damages the planet and is morally indefensible
• National and European security and strategic importance of key construction materials
• We need a strong European cement and steel reinforcement industry with long-term planned reserves of concrete aggregates
• Local jobs mean sustainable communities
• All ECP sectors working hard to minimise waste, minimise carbon footprints – BIBM, ERMCO,Cembureau,UEPG,EFCA = all active in producing More from Less - as we say in British Precast
