Did you know the world’s most northern cement plant is located in Kjøpsvik, Norway? This means that we sometimes get some pretty cool photos from there ✨ Located above the Arctic Circle, this plant operates in a truly unique location and also runs on a high alternative fuel rate. One unique fuel source? Dried fish farm sludge which is even more typical Norwegian! The Kjøpsvik plant has been up and running since 1918, making it a historic site in the area. -

All eyes are on Baku for #COP29, where delegates from around the world have come together to shape the future of our planet’s climate – and the stakes are high. This week, our Chief Sustainability & New Technologies Officer, Dr. Katharina Beumelburg, represented Heidelberg Materials at COP29 Azerbaijan, engaging with leaders, policymakers and industry experts in crucial discussions on climate action and the much-needed public and private collaboration to explore innovative solutions and policy enablers for large-scale decarbonisation. It is essential to keep momentum and accelerate emission reduction efforts. Discussion at COP29 can help to drive policy frameworks that enable the deployment of deep decarbonisation technologies and unlock other measures such as better building designs and smart building standards across the built environment. At Heidelberg Materials, our focus is clear. Our commitment to decarbonisation as a responsibility and a strategic investment is reflected in the most ambitious 2030 CO₂ reduction target of our industry: reducing our CO₂ footprint globally by almost half vs 1990. We aim to achieve this through three main levers: • Replacing fossil energy sources with alternative fuels and renewables. • Embracing a circular mindset (concrete is 100% recyclable). • Scaling breakthrough technologies to address process emissions. We’re pioneering over a dozen CCUS projects, aiming to capture and store 10 million tonnes of CO₂ by 2030. While we’ve already made tangible progress in reducing CO₂ emissions, the path to full decarbonisation remains challenging. We need speed, de-risking investments, and deep collaboration across the entire value chain. As COP29 continues, we stay optimistic and hopeful for strong, actionable outcomes that will accelerate our industry’s transition to a sustainable future. -

Europe's most modern railway sleeper plant officially opened in Sweden 🚆 This month we had the pleasure of inaugurating our new state-of-the-art #Railway sleeper plant of Heidelberg Materials Northern Europe in Vislanda, #Sweden. The project went from plan to reality in just 2.5 years and the new factory has an impressive capacity of 1,200 sleepers per day. At the plant, we will produce concrete sleepers with the highest precision and quality for a growing market using the latest #Technology. With our steady focus on #Sustainability, we have already managed to reduce the climate impact in the production by 20% over the past five years - and the new factory will improve this even more. With our new #evoZero cement, to be launched on the market next year, we will be able to reduce the carbon footprint of each sleeper by a further 60%. -

Heidelberg Materials joins call for decisive EU action on Industrial Carbon Management! 📢 On behalf of Heidelberg Materials, Jon Morrish has joined a coalition of 51 European leaders urging the European Commission to accelerate #IndustrialCarbonManagement solutions, including the deployment of Carbon Capture and Storage (#CCS) and Carbon Capture and Utilisation (#CCU) technologies. Coordinated by the Zero Emissions Platform and CCS Europe, the coalition’s open letter outlines five key priorities, underscoring the urgent need for: 1) A robust regulatory framework for CO₂ transport 2) Advancing the market for low-carbon industrial products 3) Ensuring access to CO₂ transport and storage across Europe 4) Establishing an EU CCS Alliance uniting industry players 5) Financial support to incentivize private sector investment With these actions, Europe has a strategic blueprint for scaling #NetZero technologies and infrastructure needed in the next decade. Let’s seize this opportunity to make Europe a leader in #ClimateAction and industrial innovation. Heidelberg Materials stands ready to collaborate with the EU and all stakeholders to make Europe’s net-zero vision a reality.

CCS Europe and the Zero Emissions Platform have sent an open letter to President von der Leyen, co-signed by the leaders of 51 organisations, to highlight the urgent need to scale-up Industrial Carbon Management in Europe. Despite the fact that CCS and CCU technologies are regarded as essential for the decarbonisation and competitiveness of EU industry, their deployment in Europe is slow. This is why in the letter, leaders call on the Commission to develop and implement an EU action plan for CCS that would include include a regulatory framework for CO2 transport, initiatives to advance the development for low-carbon products, access to CO2 infrastructure, an EU CCS Alliance, and financial support mechanisms to encourage private sector investment. For the EU to meet its decarbonisation targets and turn climate ambitions to a competitive advantage, action on CCS can not wait anymore! The ball's in your court, EC. Let's make CCS happen.

Is it possible to recycle concrete from the production facilities of radionuclides? 🏥 The production of #Radionuclides for medical imaging techniques in hospitals is based on particle accelerators which are shielded by #Concrete walls guaranteeing safety. Worldwide, researchers are exploring materials that can be used in sustainable concrete and be recycled after use in a radionuclide production facility. Heidelberg Materials has now become the first concrete supplier in the #Netherlands to apply a new concrete mortar with this sustainable composition in the construction of a new production facility. This solution not only creates effective protection for the environment and employees in the facility but at the same time provides a sustainable solution for long-term use. -

How to build earthquake-resistant structures with 3D printing? 🏗️ For the first time in #Italy, a concrete structure has been 3D printed in a seismic zone using our i.tech 3D cementitious material. The industrial building and a foundation system for part of the electrical equipment are located in the Alessandro Volta power station in Montalto di Castro (Lazio, Central Italy). Our collaboration with Enel Green Power and the University of Naples Federico II has led to the development of applied advanced cementitious materials. Thanks to the high degree of digitalisation, 3D printing enhances safety on construction sites and allows for the creation of structures with complex shapes and customised details that are difficult or impossible to achieve with traditional methods. #3DConcretePrinting offers a remarkable opportunity to optimise material usage, reducing the total amount required. This contributes to a lower environmental impact by lowering CO₂ emissions. Embracing this technology can lead to a more sustainable future in construction.
