Heidelberg Materials plans Ranville plant closure. By Cemnet - September 17, 2026 - 1 min has announced a proposed restructuring that would result in the closure of its Ranville cement plant in Normandy. The company attributed the decision to a significant decline in cement volumes amid weak French construction demand. It said the measure also forms part of the continuing optimisation of its European production network, with clinker supply being adapted to market requirements and greater emphasis placed on higher-value cements with lower clinker contents. The proposed closure would affect 87 employees. Heidelberg Materials said it would work with employee representatives, local authorities and government bodies to develop socially responsible measures, including possible redeployment to other French sites. The company has invested EUR650m in modernising its plants as part of its French decarbonisation programme. No proposed closure date was disclosed. Recent Comments
Heidelberg Materials acquires majority stake in Cementos Inka. By Cemnet - September 08, 2026 - 1 min has agreed to acquire a 70 per cent stake in Peruvian cement producer , which trades as Cementos Inka. Founded in 2007, Cementos Inka employs approximately 270 people and operates two cement grinding plants with a combined capacity of 1.3Mta, alongside two ready-mixed concrete plants. Its production facilities are located near Lima and Pisco, providing access to major markets and ports for importing intermediate materials. Heidelberg Materials intends to integrate the business with its global trading and production network. The acquisition is described as asset-light because Cementos Inka's grinding operations depend on imported intermediate products rather than integrated domestic clinker production. Based on Cementos Inka's anticipated 2026 EBITDA, the transaction is valued at a multiple of approximately six times. Heidelberg Materials expects it to be accretive to its financial performance from the first year. The transaction is not subject to regulatory approval and is expected to close by October 2026. The parties have not disclosed the purchase price or other financial terms. Recent Comments

German trucks torched over firm's West Bank operations. 13:53, 04/09/2026, Friday Update: 14:16, 04/09/2026, Friday File photo A far-left group has claimed responsibility for an arson attack that destroyed five construction trucks at a Heidelberg Materials plant north of Frankfurt early Wednesday, saying the action targeted the German firm's alleged extraction of stone and concrete on occupied Palestinian land in the West Bank, local media reported Thursday. Police in Germany are investigating an arson attack that destroyed five construction trucks at a Heidelberg Materials plant north of Frankfurt after a far-left group claimed responsibility citing the firm's West Bank operations, local media reported Thursday. Arson attack causes €800,000 in damage. The fire broke out early Wednesday at the Heidelberg Materials facility in Rosbach, local media reported, adding that no one was injured in the incident. Investigators said two unidentified people entered the yard and placed an incendiary device among parked trucks before fleeing the scene, destroying five concrete mixer trucks and damaging two others. Far-left group cites occupied land operations. A statement posted online by a far-left group said the attack was carried out on Anti-War Day to protest the company's business ties to Israel. The authors accused Heidelberg Materials, through its Israeli subsidiary Hanson Israel, of extracting stone and producing asphalt and ready-mix concrete on occupied Palestinian land. The group further alleged that the firm is profiting from Israel's occupation of the West Bank, which international law treats as illegal. Heidelberg Materials - one of the world's largest building materials companies - has not publicly responded to the accusations while police continue to investigate the incident with no arrests reported so far, according to local media.
