Safety is a top priority for Lafarge in the Philipppines as it is for Lafarge worldwide. A stringent safety policy is in place to promote a culture of safety and establish Lafarge as one of the world's leading companies in this domain. |

Fighting Climate Change |
|
|
Lafarge and its associated companies in the Philippines have been doing their share to contribute to the Group's ambition to reduce its carbon footprint by 20% by measuring its impact and implementing actions to reduce carbon emissions through (1) waste heat recovery which will reduce power consumption, (2) substitution of fossil fuel with carbon-neutral materials and fuels and (3) campaigning for increased use of blended cement to reduce fuel consumption. |

Sustainable Construction |
|
|
Lafarge will continue to contribute to designing innovative, lasting construction solutions - from alternative materials and recycling to renewable energy and optimization of thermal inertia - to efficiently reduce the impact of buildings on the environment. |
