New CSC Guidance Note 11-01 on R-/CO2-Module Annual Assurance

October 22, 2024

The Concrete Sustainability Council (CSC) is pleased to announce the release of Guidance Note 11-01, which provides comprehensive clarification on the requirements for the R- and CO2-Module Annual Assurance. These modules are optional, supplementary add-on modules – aimed at concrete producers – who intend to declare their concrete with recycled content or CO2-optimized concrete accordingly.

A key aspect of this guidance is the clarification of Criterion L5 (for the R-module corresponding to R5), which focuses on the Annual Compliance Declaration. Under this criterion, companies must submit an annual declaration confirming their adherence to CSC’s requirements. 

Guidance Note 11-01 outlines the entire process, providing clear instructions for companies. It also explains that reminder emails will be sent to ensure timely submissions. For more details on Guidance Note 11-01 and the requirements under Criterion L5, you can access the full guidance here.
