Join us for: "Exploring Canada’s Carbon Markets and the Future of Sustainable Building Materials" at The Buildings Show 2025, December 3 at the at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre, South and North Buildings, in Toronto.
In this session, ClearBlue's Adi Dunkelman will provide an overview of Canada’s carbon markets, with a focus on those involving the cement industry. Participants will gain an understanding of key concepts including market purpose, terminology, compliance versus voluntary systems, market strategies, and common misconceptions — along with their implications for cement and concrete buyers.
The session will then turn to Tracy Hodges of Amrize, to talk about the concrete sector, exploring opportunities to monetize decarbonization beyond cement plant-based carbon markets. A historical perspective will be provided, outlining the evolution of these markets, their underlying mechanisms, and the essential elements required for a credible, functional system — including the roles of Product Category Rules (PCRs) and Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs).
