Construction giant moves into landmark Birmingham office in "exciting new chapter" 30 Jun 2026, 08:03 A construction and services company operating across Europe has relocated to a landmark new office in the heart of Birmingham city centre as part of its long-term investment in the UK market. GOLDBECK has moved to Eleven Brindley Place, 2 Brunswick Square, which positions the business closer to clients, partners and key stakeholders. The site offers enhanced facilities, flexible working spaces and improved connectivity. Craig Davies, UK managing director at GOLDBECK, said: "This move represents an exciting new chapter for GOLDBECK in the UK. Our new Birmingham headquarters reflects who we are as a business today; modern, ambitious and focused on the future. "We wanted to create a workplace that not only supports collaboration and innovation, but also offers a high-quality environment for our team. Being based in the centre of Birmingham gives us access to fantastic amenities, improved connectivity and greater opportunities to engage with clients and partners. "Importantly, the move also supports our long-term ambitions to attract and retain the next generation of talent, particularly through stronger connections with Birmingham's universities and young professionals entering the construction and engineering sectors." The move comes as GOLDBECK continues to expand its presence across the UK construction sector, backed by the wider international GOLDBECK group. The company said it expects the new headquarters to become a focal point for collaboration, client engagement and future recruitment activity.
Holcim deploys carbon-storing concrete technology in German logistics project. 07 May 2026 Holcim has partnered with Swedish startup Paebbl and contractor Goldbeck on the first commercial-scale application of Paebbl's carbon-storing supplementary cementitious material technology in a logistics centre project in southern Germany. The project involved the use of an innovative Holcim concrete mix incorporating Paebbl Rebond, a mineralised SCM produced through accelerated mineralisation technology that converts captured CO[2] into a stable mineral powder composed primarily of magnesium carbonate and silicon dioxide. According to Holcim, the concrete floor slab mix enabled a 15 per cent reduction in cement consumption compared to a conventional CEM II/B-M reference mix. The system also permanently mineralised and stored 886kg of CO2 across the 420m[2] project area. The project progressed from concept to implementation within six months and included laboratory testing at the Holcim Innovation Center in Lyon, France, alongside plant trials conducted with Holcim South Germany to assess concrete workability, air content and bleeding behaviour. Holcim also collaborated with Paebbl on the preparation of a verified Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) for the concrete system. The application represents another example of growing interest in carbon-mineralisation technologies as cement and concrete producers seek lower-carbon SCM alternatives and additional pathways for CO[2] utilisation within construction materials.

German industrialised construction system enters UK housing with Goldbeck Dorchester project. UK housing scheme adopts German industrialised construction platform from Goldbeck. A new residential development in Dorchester is introducing a German industrialised construction system to the UK housing sector, with developers targeting faster delivery of homes for health and care workers. (main image: Oak House in Dorchester, a 79-apartment development for key workers near Dorchester County Hospital, delivered using Goldbeck's German industrialised construction system with prefabricated structural elements assembled on site.) The project, known as Oak House, will deliver a 79-apartment building on Poundbury Road close to Dorchester County Hospital. Developed by health and care property specialist Prime, the scheme will provide a mix of studio, one, two and three-bedroom apartments aimed at key workers struggling to find affordable accommodation near their workplace. Prime has partnered with Goldbeck, a German industrialised construction company headquartered in Bielefeld, to deliver the design-and-build project. Completion is scheduled for early 2027, with the construction programme expected to be around 25 per cent faster than conventional building methods. The project is funded by Royal London Asset Management and will be operated by Hyve by Prime, a not-for-profit property management organisation. Watch Goldbeck's story German industrialised construction system applied to UK housing For Oak House, much of the building will be produced offsite before assembly on site. Goldbeck will prefabricate the precast concrete structural frame, hollow-core floor slabs, internal and external walls, façade components, bathrooms and utility cupboards. The system has been widely used across Germany and Europe for both commercial and residential buildings. Goldbeck's approach differs from volumetric modular construction. Instead of producing complete modules, the company manufactures standardised structural and building elements in factory environments and assembles them on site using repeatable systems. This element-based method allows individual architectural design while relying on prefabricated components engineered for repeated use. The Dorchester scheme represents the first residential application of Goldbeck's construction system in the UK. Inside Goldbeck's industrialised construction system in Germany, where structural components are manufactured in factory environments before being transported to site and assembled into completed buildings. Inside Goldbeck's system-based construction model Founded in 1969 in Bielefeld, Goldbeck has developed a construction platform built around industrial prefabrication and systemised building components. The company treats buildings as products manufactured through repeatable elements rather than fully bespoke on-site construction. The business operates more than 100 locations across Europe and employs over 13,000 people, delivering projects ranging from logistics buildings and offices to schools, multi-storey car parks and residential developments. Central to its approach is in-house production. Structural elements, façade systems and floor components are manufactured in dedicated factories before being transported to site for assembly. This allows a high level of repetition in structural grids and components while reducing on-site labour and improving programme certainty. Goldbeck reports completing more than 12,000 projects, and in the 2024/25 financial year recorded total turnover of around €6.3 billion (AUD $10.4 billion). The company entered the UK market last year through a partnership with concrete slab manufacturer Oranmore Precast in Nottinghamshire, establishing local production capability to support projects using its system-based construction method. Oak House in Dorchester will be the first UK residential project delivered using that platform. Find Goldbeck HERE
