Green cement is an environmentally friendly product that minimizes carbon footprint of cement production. Many attempts have been made to produce green cements and several green cement types have been produced. The majority of these are based on technological advances that include energy-efficient, low carbon production methods, new cement formulations, geopolymers, carbon-negative cements and new concrete products. Types of Green Cement 1. Ekkomaxx Cement It is a type of green cement that is composed of 95% fly ash and 5% renewable liquid additives. It has nearly zero carbon footprint.The main characteristics of Ekkomax cement are high early strength, resilience, crack resistance, low chloride permeability, sulphate attack resistance, durability, corrosion resistance which is more than three times of conventional cement and the resistance to freezing and thawing is greater than that of normal cement.  2.
