Hanson UK has become Heidelberg Materials, aligning with its parent company which announced its new global branding in September 2022.

"The construction sector faces global challenges such as climate change and the digitalisation of our industry; challenges we are better placed to meet as a strong, united Group," said Simon Willis, CEO of Heidelberg Materials UK.

"Having a single brand name and identity sends a clear and consistent message to our increasingly global customers and fosters collaboration across both geographical and organisational borders.

"It will allow us to work together to lead the field in driving down carbon emissions; promote the circular economy by recycling and reusing construction waste; develop digital solutions to provide added value to our customers; and develop sustainable and innovative building materials."
