Green Pro Renewal PSC

JSW Cement has partnered with M/s Thinkstep Sustainability Solutions Pvt Ltd (now M/s Sphera) for carrying out EPD in accordance with ISO 14025 and EN 15804, for our green products. During this engagement, a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) was carried out using their proprietary software (GaBI). The outcomes from LCA are about GHG emission, energy consumption, other emissions, wastes generation, etc and these results were sent to a third-party for complete verification. Post confirmation from the third-party, the final EPD has been registered and published for JSW Cement PSC and JSW Cement GGBS, which validates our claim of low carbon emission.
As a result of the lower clinker factor due to substitution with blast furnace slag, the Global Warming Potential of our PSC product was found to be 325.14 kg CO2/tonne of PSC – one of the lowest in the cement industry.
