Sustainable Development

Framework

Given the importance of the sustainability-related challenges that society is facing, CEMEX has integrated sustainability into its business strategy. With the help of our Sustainability Model, we are incorporating sustainability practices into all of our day-to-day operations and decision-making processes worldwide. Our model ensures that we concentrate our efforts and resources on the issues of highest relevance to our business and greatest concern to our stakeholders.

CEMEX’s Sustainability Model

Our approach to building a more sustainable CEMEX—and thus contributing to a more sustainable world—is driven by the following three sustainability objectives:

Enhance Our Value Creation

CEMEX aims to deliver the innovative, high-performing products, services, and solutions that our resource-constrained society requires in order to create a growing and profitable low-carbon economy. By fulfilling the needs of the construction sector in its efforts to adopt more sustainable operating practices, we aim to create long-lasting competitive advantages.

Manage Our Footprint

CEMEX strives to minimize the ecological impacts of its operations on the communities in which we operate. Such impacts are carefully identified and measured so that we can continuously reduce our footprint to the lowest level that is both technically and economically feasible. We also have a robust pipeline of projects that provide carbon offsets to further reduce our net impact.

Engage Our Stakeholders

CEMEX fosters positive, long-term relationships with key stakeholders to address the pressing needs and concerns of society. With a highly committed and empowered employee base, CEMEX closely collaborates with a broad variety of institutions that allow us to complement our core competences and enable us to generate social benefits that contribute to strengthening local communities.

We believe that if our stakeholders prosper, our company will prosper. This philosophy forms the basis for our vision to be the company of choice for our stakeholders. This means being:

Our People

We aim to be the employer of choice in our markets. We seek to provide the most attractive opportunities for employees’ personal and professional development.

Our Neighbors

We are a good neighbor. We participate with communities openly and directly in order to build trust and address their concerns.

Our Business Partners

We work to be the business partner of choice. We seek to help our suppliers and customers build their businesses and to create enduring value for our shareholders.

Our World

We are a good global citizen. As a global company, we work to contribute to international efforts to address some of the world’s most complex challenges, including climate change, access to housing and community infrastructure, and the conservation of biodiversity.

By building strong long-term relationships with our key stakeholders, we increase our responsiveness to their needs and concerns, find new ways to reduce our impacts, contribute to sustainable development worldwide, and, ultimately, make CEMEX a more competitive and profitable enterprise.
