Heidelberg Materials, Cement

Heidelberg Materials North America, formerly Lehigh Hanson, is a leading supplier of cement, aggregates, ready mixed concrete, and asphalt with more than 450 locations and approximately 9,000 employees. The company has a long history dating back to 1897 when Lehigh Cement Company began as a single-mill operation in Ormrod, Pennsylvania. Over the years, the company has grown through acquisitions, modernization, and increased productivity, becoming one of North America's leading providers of cement and construction materials. In 2007, Heidelberg Cement acquired Hanson PLC, creating a multinational provider of cement, aggregates, ready mixed concrete, and other construction materials. In 2016, Heidelberg Cement completed the acquisition of Italcementi, integrating Essroc, a subsidiary of Italcementi, into the Lehigh Hanson businesses. In 2023, Lehigh Hanson became Heidelberg Materials in North America, uniting the entire North American family of brands under this new banner while remaining focused on what we do best: heavy building materials. The rebrand reflects a much broader and innovative approach to serving customers and leading the industry in sustainability and digital solutions.
