Edgemere 2.0 concrete interlocking roof tile

The UK's first concrete roof tile with evidence backed, carbon capture cement technology. 

In a market in which embodied-carbon evidence is moving from optional to expected, for the public sector and increasingly housing providers, product-level carbon evidence is becoming part of the specification process.

Sustainability leads, including quantity surveyors and architects are frequently asked to produce verifiable, product-level carbon evidence to demonstrate tangible reductions of carbon emissions throughout the entire construction process.

Introducing Edgemere 2.0 - A first for UK roofing

With Edgemere 2.0, we have introduced the first concrete roof tile offering evidence backed carbon reduction, through the use of carbon-capture cement technology.

Edgemere 2.0 combines Marley’s familiar Edgemere concrete roof tile specification with carbon-capture cement technology and Carbon Bank evidence supplied for every order. 
 
 
The carbon reduction story behind Edgemere 2.0 begins with the cement. CO₂ from cement production is captured at source, before it enters the atmosphere, and permanently stored beneath the seabed.

The carbon saving is then recorded in the publicly available Carbon Bank, which allocates captured and stored CO₂ reductions to specific Edgemere 2.0 orders, with full end-to-end traceability through an Environmental Attribute Certificate (EAC).

You can bank on it.

What is evozero near-zero cement technology? 

Edgemere 2.0 is supported by Heidelberg Materials’ EvoZero® carbon captured near-zero cement, enabled through the first carbon capture facility at its cement works in Brevik, Norway. To avoid the transport emissions that would be incurred by shipping from Brevik, Edgemere 2.0 CO₂ reduction can be transferred and attributed using locally sourced Heidelberg cement. 

A Carbon Bank withdrawal is made to reduce the corresponding Global Warming Potential (GWP) of the locally produced UK cement to zero.  The carbon reduction is recorded in Heidelberg Materials’ publicly available Carbon Bank, which allocates captured and stored CO₂ reductions to each specific Edgemere 2.0 order, with full end-to-end traceability through an Environmental Attribute Certificate (EAC)
