Already from the planning phase of The Ellinikon urban regeneration project, LAMDA Development has focused on "green" and sustainable practices for the entire scope of the project and for each type of action, in the framework of a Sustainable Development Strategy that has as its main pillars the reduction of the carbon footprint, the circular economy and the well-being of the people of the local community.
The Ellinikon has signed MoUs with the TITAN and Heracles Groups, which have already installed state-of-the-art ready-mixed concrete plants on site, promoting partnerships and synergies for "green" concrete of high standards with the aim of:
- Promoting sustainable concrete products with low carbon emissions and low use of natural resources in construction.
- Using available innovative materials, including high performance concrete and cyclical solutions in their production.
- Focusing on optimising the cement and aggregates supply chain.
TITAN and Heracles Groups are contributing to the implementation of The Ellinikon project in Greece, with the state-of-the-art ready-mix concrete plants located within the site. The two production plants aim to increase the use of recycled materials and to source aggregates from nearby quarries, reducing transport distances and minimising the environmental impacts associated with long-distance deliveries of materials. This emphasis on a local and sustainable supply chain reinforces the overall sustainable development objectives of the project.
The optimized cement and aggregates supply chain and the investment in the new facilities reflect the Groups' commitment to sustainable construction practices by providing Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) certifications, while playing a key role in supporting Lamda Development in the implementation of one of its most iconic infrastructure projects.
Titan Group
TITAN Group provides on-site innovative low-carbon products, tailored solutions and expert advice on the use of innovative materials and circular solutions. A notable aspect of TITAN's contribution to the project's footprint is its commitment to a sustainable supply chain.
Equipped with advanced automation and cutting-edge technology, the newly established TITAN Group operation sets new standards for environmental responsibility and multi-materials management. The plant adheres to the principles of circular economy, minimizing the use of natural resources, maximizing the recycling of concrete and demolition materials, incorporating a fresh concrete recycling system and a mechanism for reusing treated water. These sustainable practices ensure the production of innovative concrete products required during the construction period of The Ellinikon projects.
Heracles Group
Lafarge's Ready-Mix concrete plant paves the way for sustainable urban regeneration. The green concrete plant guarantees the quality and compliance with environmental standards for the materials used in The Ellinikon, thus setting new standards for an environmentally responsible construction sector.
