About Holcim

We are leaders in supplying innovative, sustainable building solutions to the UK construction industry; building progress for people and planet. From our foundations in 1858, we've helped shape the UK, powering the construction of homes and hospitals, roads and railways, schools, and cities alike. But as our industry enables growth, it must also change. Tackling the very real carbon and climate challenges demands real action. That’s why our mission is to make sustainable construction a reality.

With 4,000 colleagues across 200 sites, we’re passionate about helping Britain grow and thrive—doing the right thing, doing it together, and making a difference.
