CEMEX, in collaboration with Projekt O2, have piloted a project to reintroduce native plants in St Juraj – St Kajo Quarry in Croatia, using drones to distribute seeds in hard-to-reach areas.
Given the large areas needing seeding, Cemex organized a volunteer initiative to collect as many native seeds as possible, with drones being used to distribute these seeds to the test areas.
Workers and the companies involved are able to use a digital application to monitor their plantings, track progress, identify suitable planting areas, and calculate their positive ecological footprint.
The project is part of Cemex’s Biodiversity Action Plan (BAP) programme, which aims to rehabilitate 100% of the company’s quarries and enhance natural habitats after extraction activities.
