#Cement is a driver for change.
Cement Europe stands for innovation, circularity, and progress.
We’re rethinking how we build, with low-carbon materials, new technologies, and climate ambition at our core.
We’re not only part of the transition, we’re driving it.

#Cement takes up a small share of costs (5–15%) but at the same time the backbone of homes, schools and hospitals.
Lead markets for low-carbon cement mean Europe builds smarter, greener and more affordable places to live.

Future-ready #cement industry needs future-ready #skills.
Together with @efbww.bsky.social , we mapped skills for 2030 & 2050.
Our recommendations find that training, dialogue and safe digitalisation are key.

The #cement sector is transforming. Are training systems ready?
#CementSkills2030 shows:
🧠 Gaps in CCUS, digital, hydrogen skills
🔧 Shortages in technician training
🌍 Uneven access across Member States
🎓 Providers must modernise fast.

#CementSkills2030 project shows how #decarbonisation & digitalisation are reshaping jobs across the sector. Without worker & employer engagement, the transition risks falling short.
🔹 Labour shortages
🔹 New #OSH risks
