Holcim has introduced the cement industry's first industrial-scale carbon capture test platform at its Martres-Tolosane facility in France, designed to field-test and validate advanced technologies with third-party partners. The 2500m² facility, CaptureLab, features a plug-and-play architecture to trial various carbon capture methods, such as chemical absorption or membrane separation, directly using real-world emissions.
The initiative supports the company’s decarbonisation roadmap by enabling the testing and scaling of technologies for near-zero cement production. Air Liquide is conducting the first pilot project at the site.
