To categorize the carbon footprint of each concrete recipe, LKAB Berg & Betong uses the Swedish concrete association (sv: Svensk Betong) guidelines for ready-mix concrete . For each 10 % reduction in carbon footprint compared to the industry standard for that particular application (Generation 0), the recipe advances one level (or generation). LKAB has defined the industry standard applicable for the arctic condition in which we operate, which is the Gen 0 that we compare against. This recipe classifies as Gen 0, see table below.
