Sustainability

Why are we acting?

Quarrying and sustainability may appear to be worlds apart. Yet Lafarge has proved that with the right ambition and commitment, tremendous progress can be made towards making the supply of construction materials more sustainable.

“It would be easy to run Lafarge without consideration for the broader impact the Group has on the world around us, easy but wrong. We are committed to being ranked among the world’s most effective industrial groups in terms of employee health & safety, environmental protection, social responsibility and corporate governance.”
Bruno Lafont, Chief Executive Officer.
