The financial intelligence layer for cement decarbonization.
Cement pricing. Demand forecasting. Carbon attribute valuation. Technology rankings. All in one institutional-grade terminal.
Built for the capital allocators, operators, and policymakers who need hard data — not dashboards of hope.
Five modules. One platform.
Each module is powerful alone. Together, they form the most comprehensive market intelligence system ever built for the cement and concrete industry.
Cement Index
Real-time market intelligence
Track cement pricing, regional market share shifts, and policy momentum across all 50 states. Our V9 Ten-Signal Fusion Engine synthesizes DOT bid tabs, USGS production data, BLS PPI, SEC producer filings, and import parity into a composite price signal — validated at 1.16% MAPE against SEC quarterly filings and 1.05% MAPE against 175 USGS state-years.
- 1.16% MAPE vs SEC filings
- 42,700+ validation observations
- 50-state coverage · 101 regions
- Rolling bias correction (V9)
Demand Planner
Construction demand forecasting
Visualize and forecast concrete demand at the city, metro, and state level. Our models ingest 900K+ georeferenced building permits, housing starts, infrastructure spending, and DOT contract awards to produce granular consumption baselines and forward projections.
- Metro-level demand baselines
- Permit-driven forecasting
- Infrastructure pipeline tracking
- Seasonal adjustment modeling
EAC Pricing Engine
Carbon attribute valuation
Value Environmental Attribute Certificates through the lens of finance, not compliance. Model carbon credit pricing against plant-level GWP data, Buy Clean thresholds, and carbon tax scenarios to derive the true financial premium of green concrete.
- Carbon credit arbitrage modeling
- Plant-level GWP valuation
- Buy Clean compliance pricing
- Carbon tax scenario analysis
Technology Ranking System
The "Five Tests" framework
Evaluate 100+ low-carbon concrete technologies across five critical dimensions: carbon reduction potential, cost competitiveness, supply scalability, functional performance, and market readiness. Our proprietary ranking provides the definitive investment signal.
- Five Tests evaluation matrix
- 100+ technologies ranked
- Investment readiness signals
- Competitive landscape mapping

Direct access to CTC's team of cement economists, carbon market analysts, and infrastructure finance specialists. From procurement strategy and policy design to investment committee presentations and due diligence support.
- On-demand analyst briefings
- Custom market studies
- Due diligence support
- Policy & procurement advisory
The market information problem
Cement is a $15 billion annual market in the United States alone. Yet the entire industry operates on less data transparency than a mid-cap SaaS company.
Prices are opaque, negotiated regionally, and buried in DOT bid tabs. Demand signals are spread across thousands of disconnected permit databases. Carbon data is fragmented across EPD registries with no standardized pricing methodology. And SCM availability — the critical input for decarbonization — is tracked by almost no one.
"You cannot decarbonize what you cannot measure. You cannot finance what you cannot price. You cannot scale what you cannot see."
CTC's Market Data Platform solves this by fusing 181 proprietary and public data sources into a single, continuously updated intelligence layer — validated against 42,700+ independent observations and achieving institutional-grade accuracy below 1.2% MAPE.
