SECIL
Portuguese manufacturer of construction materials. In the directory we only highlight its lower-footprint lines: natural hydraulic lime, cork ETICS and thermal mortars.
SECIL (Companhia Geral de Cal e Cimento) is one of Portugal's largest manufacturers of construction materials. Although its main volume is cement, in Descarboniza we only highlight its lower-impact lines: Natural Hydraulic Lime (NHL 3,5 and NHL 5), a binder with a lower carbon footprint than Portland cement, breathable and suitable for the rehabilitation and restoration of historic buildings; the SecilVit CORK ETICS system, which insulates with cork (a bio-based material); lime renders for rehabilitation (REABILITA CAL), with high vapour permeability; and thermal mortars (Isodur, thermal renders) for energy efficiency. The company has near-term targets validated by SBTi and its own Environmental Product Declaration programme.
For its natural hydraulic lime and cork insulation lines —lower footprint and breathable, key in rehabilitation— and for publishing verified EPDs (EN 15804+A2), a sign of environmental transparency. We do NOT include its grey Portland cement.
Chosen by Descarboniza. No company pays for what we say about it.

Not specified
SECIL mantiene un programa de DAPs verificadas. CONFIRMADAS para cemento (p. ej. CEM I 42.5R Outão — EPD Norway NEPD-10063, válida 2025–2030; CEM I 52.5R — DAPHabitat DAP-014-2024; ambas EN 15804+A2, verif. independiente). NO se ha confirmado una DAP específica de la cal hidráulica natural ni del ETICS/morteros térmicos → por eso NO se publican aquí cifras de carbono de esas líneas (pendiente de fuente trazable). DAPs: daphabitat.pt y secil.pt.
