Cemex UK has announced a partnership with The Pallet LOOP, moving towards more sustainable packaging solutions in the cement industry.
From October 2025, the core range of Rugby Cement products bagged at Cemex’s flagship plant in Rugby will be delivered on The Pallet LOOP’s green pallets, designed for recovery, repair, and reuse.
Cemex is the first cement manufacturer to adopt The Pallet LOOP’s circular pallet system. This move is part of the company’s broader Future in Action strategy, which aims to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050 through climate action, circularity, and natural resource management.
Vicki Elliott, national sales manager for bagged cement at Cemex UK said: “This is a significant step forward for the cement industry. We’ve supported The Pallet LOOP from day one, signing its charter back in 2022. Now, we’re proud to be the first in our sector to integrate this solution into our supply chain. It’s about doing the right thing, as simply as possible – reducing waste, cutting carbon, and helping our customers make more sustainable choices.”
