HeidelbergCement has acquired six ready-mixed concrete plants and one sandpit via its Czech subsidiary Českomoravský beton, a.s. from Kámen Zbraslav, a.s. in the Moravia region in the Eastern part of the Czech Republic. All 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 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 thousand cubic metres of concrete.
