Our customers can trust that our cement has been rigorously tested and manufactured using repeatable, traceable, and high-integrity processes.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>While this certification is specific to the Redding ReCarb facility, it sets the standard for expanding ISO 9001:2015 certification across its future manufacturing footprint, ensuring consistent quality and performance as it scales to meet the rising demand for low-carbon cement and concrete solutions.<\/p>\n<p>Fortera\u2019s recent projects include taking part in the renovation of a historic power plant at the University of California, Berkeley, partnering with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.webcor.com\/\">Webcor<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.centralconcrete.com\/\">Central Concrete<\/a> to provide a low-clinker mix containing ReAct and slag, reducing the carbon footprint of the site without compromising performance.
