Çimentaş Strengthens Its Sustainability Commitment with EPD Certification

Tuesday, July 1, 2025

As one of Turkey’s well-established industrial companies, Çimentaş has taken another significant step in sustainable production by earning the internationally recognized Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) certificate for its cement.

The EPD certificate is a globally accepted certification system that documents the environmental impacts of a product throughout its entire life cycle — from raw material sourcing to production and usage — in a scientific, transparent, and independently verified manner. This milestone serves as a concrete demonstration of Çimentaş’s environmentally focused production approach and unwavering commitment to sustainability.

Commenting on the achievement, Gürol Özer, Technical Operations Director at Çimentaş, stated: “At Çimentaş, while continuously improving our production processes, minimizing environmental impact remains one of our top priorities. The EPD certificate reflects our approach to transparency and accountability in this area. We are proud not only to measure and document our product quality, but also our environmental performance. On our sustainability journey, we will continue to combine environmentally conscious production with operational excellence.”

Selin Ayan, Çimentaş Environmental Manager, also shared her thoughts: “The EPD certificate allows us to document not only our product quality, but also our environmental performance according to international standards. Our efforts to reduce our carbon footprint will continue at full speed. We will keep offering both quality and environmental sensitivity for a greener, more livable future.”

With its commitment to reducing its carbon footprint, Çimentaş continues to lead the industry by implementing innovative practices, enhancing resource efficiency, advancing energy management, and embracing eco-friendly production technologies.
