More about the author

Stephen Harpur

CEO and chairman, Progressive Planet

Stephen Harpur is the CEO and chairman of Progressive Planet, based in Kamloops, B.C. Responsible for setting the vision of Progressive Planet, Stephen leads the technical team in developing scalable, sustainable solutions – from technology in the lab to pilot validation and commercialization of products. Stephen’s passion for thinking outside the triangle has led him and his team to the cement industry – where they’re committed to decarbonizing concrete by reducing the use of Portland cement with the 1:1 substitution of PozGlass 100G and other pozzolan based low-carbon cements and cement additives.
