Focusing on the West Australian market, BGC Cementitious’ business portfolio is comprised of cement, concrete, quarry, asphalt, and transport operations as well as a materials technology centre. The transaction includes, among others, a state-of-the-art cement grinding unit with significant capacities.
The acquisition is subject to regulatory approval. Cement Australia, a joint venture of Heidelberg Materials and Holcim, is a leading supplier of cementitious products and services in Australia.
