sustainability and innovation
TABUK, Saudi Arabia, Dec. 15,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Abdullah Abdin Ready-Mix
Concrete is proud to announce its achievement of the Concrete
Sustainability Council (CSC) certification, a milestone that
establishes it as a leader in sustainable construction in the MENA
region. This recognition makes Abdullah Abdin Ready-Mix Concrete
the first ready-mix concrete company in the MENA region—and the
first outside Europe, South America, and Turkey—to receive this
esteemed certification.
The CSC certification highlights Abdullah Abdin's dedication to implementing
advanced sustainability practices and setting a higher standard for
environmental and social responsibility, reflecting its commitment
to Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030 and
reinforcing its position as a forward-thinking leader in the
construction sector.
Launched in 2017 as a global initiative to support the
Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in the concrete sector, the
Concrete Sustainability Council (CSC) is the only globally
applicable certification system for ready-mixed and precast
concrete. With 1,288 active certified plants in 25 countries, CSC
certification is recognized by leading green building labels such
as LEED and BREEAM.
To celebrate the achievement, an award ceremony took place today
at the company's premises in Sharma, NEOM, where notable attendees
from the industry and the company's partners gathered to mark this
significant accomplishment, which is expected to inspire similar
efforts across the region.
"This milestone demonstrates our commitment to advancing
Saudi Arabia's leadership in
sustainable development," said Tariq
Abdullah Abdin, CEO of Abdullah Abdin Ready-Mix Concrete.
"As the first company in the region to achieve this certification,
we aim to set the standard for environmentally responsible
construction while contributing to the Kingdom's ambitious Vision
2030 goals and fulfilling the aspirations of our partners,
particularly in Giga projects with NEOM leading the way."
Cynthia Imesch, Coordinator and
Sustainability Manager at the Concrete Sustainability Council,
remarked: "Abdullah Abdin's
achievement represents a significant step forward for the region's
construction industry. By integrating sustainability into their
operations, they exemplify the transformative role businesses can
play in achieving global climate objectives. Their leadership paves
the way for broader industry adoption of these critical
standards."
Rabih Fakih, Managing Director at
Grey Matters, the regional system operator for CSC, added: "We are
proud to support Abdullah Abdin in
achieving this certification as it reflects the growing momentum
for sustainable construction in the Middle East. This milestone not only
highlights their leadership but also serves as an inspiration for
other companies to adopt practices that align with the
environmental aspirations of Vision 2030 and NEOM."
In addition to achieving CSC certification, Abdullah Abdin recently signed a Memorandum of
Understanding (MOU) with MENA region Cryo and CarbonCure
Technologies. This collaboration focuses on deploying carbon
capture and utilization technologies across its facilities, aiming
to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and enhance the sustainability
of concrete production. By leveraging innovative solutions such as
injecting captured CO₂ into concrete mixes, the partnership aligns
with Abdullah Abdin's broader
mission to lead in eco-friendly construction practices and actively
contribute to the Kingdom's decarbonization goals.
