The trusted, authoritative global voice for the cement and concrete sector.
About us
The Global Cement and Concrete Association (GCCA) is the global voice for cement and concrete - the most widely used man-made product on the planet. The GCCA and its members are committed to promoting the unique properties of concrete as a sustainable, durable and resilient building material – a material that will answer the needs of a growing and increasingly urban population that is set to exceed 9 billion people by 2050. The GCCA’s authoritative voice will help ensure that the prevailing views of cement and concrete are holistic and based on robust evidence. Alongside this global advocacy role, the GCCA will gather and publish data against the industry’s sustainability commitments as well as develop member guidelines and initiate research. This is being supported by the transfer of the Cement Sustainability Initiative (CSI) activities to the GCCA under the strategic partnership with the World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD). The GCCA work programme is organised along three dimensions: sustainability, innovation and the positioning of concrete. Sustainable development of our industry is at the very core of the GCCA’s work and has five pillars: safety & health, climate change & energy, social responsibility, environment & nature and circular economy. We want to drive responsible industry leadership in the manufacture and use of cement and concrete. We will strive to improve the global social and environmental impact of the sector’s activities and products. We aim to foster innovation and collaboration with industry associations and inspiring architects, engineers and innovators across the globe and along the length of the built-environment value chain. Concrete is more than a building material. It provides homes, it connects communities, it encourages trade, it provides energy, it improves health, it broadens minds.

I'm honoured to be one of the winners of the GCCA – Global Cement and Concrete Association#ConcreteInLife2425 global photography competition! 📸 My photo, captured in Pondicherry, was selected from over 20,000 entries worldwide. I waited patiently for the perfect moment — a scene where an elderly woman walked past a mural, her movement aligning beautifully with the wings painted behind her. A simple moment, yet full of meaning. This recognition is not just about one image. I’ve been traveling and photographing since 2012, staying consistent and committed to the craft. This win reminds me — if you work hard and stay dedicated, results will follow. Thank you to the GCCA and the jury for this incredible Honour. Grateful to be able to tell stories through my lens. Also Thank you, FUJIFILM India Pvt Ltd, for being more than just a camera brand. giving me all this success Your gear has helped me see the world differently and tell stories that matter. Every click with my X-T20 and 35mm is a step closer to the soul of the moment. I am grateful to be part of this creative journey. #ConcreteInLife #GCCA #PhotographyAward #VisualStorytelling #HardWorkPaysOff #ConsistencyIsKey #Pondicherry #StreetPhotography #AwardWinningPhotography
