2050 Carbon Neutrality is a common goal globally that can no longer be postponed. In particularly, in the case of the cement industry, because the most important method which decreases significant amount of carbon emission, its importance has been emphasized increasingly. In order to achieve carbon neutrality in the cement industry, not only the realistic technology development and the system establishment has to be arranged, but also overall social change in the construction industry including the cement concrete industry must be accompanied. Furthermore, in order to establish an environment that can support the carbon-neutral strategy of the cement industry, discussions on the establishment and amendment of cement-related standards should be continuously conducted from the present point between cement stakeholders. In this point of view, this study is going to propose the draft roadmap by reviewing items for establishment and revision of domestic cement-related KS standards by reviewing and analyzing the trend of standards, technologies, and carbon neutrality roadmaps in major foreign countries. Current KS standards for cement have too environmental and institutional limitations to realize the goal in terms of 2050 carbon neutrality. Therefore, it is necessary to refer to the cement standards of major overseas countries, which are already advanced comparing to Korea. At the same time, efforts to establish and revise cement standards should be strengthened through active social discussion about the proposed roadmap.
