Cement Makers’ Code

The UK Cement Makers' Code was first published in June 2006 and sets out the values, ethics and standards that should be followed by all BCA members in pursuit of all their activities.  It sets sustainability principles including: priorities for health and safety; involvement with local communities; quality of cement products; and reporting on adherence to the code itself. 

The code is incorporated in company management systems and is audited annually. Compliance with the code is reported in Performance, the BCA's annual corporate responsibility report.  In parallel with the Cement Makers’ Code, in conjunction with the Environment Agency, BCA has developed a Code of Practice for the use of waste-derived fuel.
