Limestone Calcined Clay Cement (LC3): A Low-Carbon Breakthrough for Construction

By Lodha

Limestone Calcined Clay Cement (LC3) offers a significant opportunity to cut cement-related carbon emissions by up to 40 percent while maintaining performance and affordability. This RMI article highlights how LC3 can be produced using abundant materials like clay and limestone, making it a practical solution for global markets. India is emerging as a leader in LC3 deployment, with manufacturers and policymakers exploring pathways to scale its use.

As cities move toward net-zero goals, materials like LC3 will be critical in reducing emissions from the built environment. The Lodha Net Zero Urban Accelerator is working to bridge innovation with real-world adoption, with an upcoming LC3 pilot to build confidence among developers, contractors, and policymakers.
