HeidelbergCement's Czech Republic subsidiary has acquired six ready-mixed concrete plants and one sandpit from Kámen Zbraslav
All located in the Moravia region in the eastern Czech Republic, the plants have a well-established residential and commercial customer base around the city of Brno, with a high demand for sustainable building solutions.
With this step, HeidelbergCement continues to drive forward its portfolio optimisation programme and further expands its footprint in the central European region.
HeidelbergCement now operates 80 ready-mixed concrete plants in the Czech Republic and two in Slovakia. The expected annual production of the newly acquired plants is around 85,000m3 of concrete.
