. Leading supplier of recycled construction materials in the UK
. Advances Holcim's circularity goal to recycle 10 million tons of construction materials in 2024
. Expands range of circular building solutions in the UK
Holcim has completed the acquisition of Land Recovery in the UK, advancing its capabilities in circular construction. A
leading UK supplier of primary and recycled materials, Land Recovery turns rail ballast into new solutions for the UK
rail network as well as supplying construction demolition materials for the production of ready-mix, precast concrete
and asphalt. The acquisition expands Holcim's access to construction demolition materials, with Land Recovery recycling
more than 300,000 tons last year.
Miljan Gutovic, CEO, Holcim: "Land Recovery strengthens Holcim's leading position in circular construction and advances
our group target of recycling 10 million tons of construction demolition materials in 2024. I look forward to welcoming
all 85 employees of Land Recovery and investing in our next era of growth together."
Land Recovery was founded in 1982 by the Beecroft family. With four facilities across the UK as well as 85 employees,
Land Recovery's services include the supply of primary rail ballast, handling and treating spent ballast and recycling
it into new building solutions.
The transaction follows Holcim's acquisition last year of Sivyer Logistics, a leading producer of recycled construction
demolition materials for the London construction market.
