Innovation meets responsibility

Sustainability is one of the key transformative topics of our time and an integral part of Heidelberg Materials’ strategy. It influences every business decision and is firmly anchored in our day-to-day business at our almost 3,000 locations.

Our overarching objective is to decarbonise our cement and concrete products by applying innovative technologies and sustainable practices. By consistently integrating sustainability into our value chains, we have been able to significantly expand our range of sustainable products and solutions in recent years.

We decarbonise the construction industry

Cement and concrete will play an important role in the infrastructure of the future. At Heidelberg Materials, we are working to decarbonise them by using innovative carbon capture and storage technologies. We are developing alternative binders to reduce the CO₂ intensity of concrete. We are committed to a functioning circular economy by focusing on resource efficiency, co-processing of waste materials and concrete recycling.

Learn how 3D printing enables a new way of building that offers less material and waste, higher construction speed and process efficiency, and greater safety and design freedom.

Sustainability beyond CO₂ reduction

In addition to CO₂, our sustainability work covers occupational safety, responsible procurement, biodiversity and human rights, as well as other key areas.

We aim to make a positive contribution to society. We are committed to diversity, equity and inclusion and have set a target for 25% of all leadership positions to be filled by women. 

Find out more about how we are working for a nature positive future and contributing to a better world through our biodiversity programme and sustainable water management.
