Cement

What Cement does

Heidelberg Materials Cement Sverige (formerly Cementa) is a Swedish cement manufacturer and one of Sweden's largest building materials companies, wholly owned by the publicly listed German multinational Heidelberg Materials AG. The company manufactures and sells a broad portfolio of cement products, including standard cement (Standardcement), industrial cement (Industricement), infrastructure cement (Anläggningscement), white cement (Vitcement), injection cement (Injekteringscement), ground-stabilization cement (Markstabilisering), and masonry cement (Murcement), as well as low-carbon offerings evoZero and evoBuild based on carbon capture and storage (CCS), and Vulkanisk puzzolan (VPI) sourced from Iceland. Production is concentrated at two plants, Slite on Gotland and Skövde, supported by a nationwide depot and logistics network and digital services such as Prognosportalen (delivery forecasting) and HETT22 (technical documentation access).

The core technology differentiator is evoZero, marketed as the world's first CCS cement with near-zero CO2 emissions, with the parent group having inaugurated Brevik CCS in Norway (June 2025) as the cement industry's first large-scale CCS facility; however, the parallel CCS initiative at Slite has been paused (2026), creating execution risk for domestic near-zero supply. The company holds ISO 14001 and ISO 50001 certifications, has approximately 150 years of continuous operation in Sweden under the former Cementa brand, and operates an explicit sustainability roadmap targeting net-zero by 2030.

Go-to-market is B2B and sales-led: products are sold directly to construction companies, building materials manufacturers, infrastructure projects, and real estate developers via market-and-sales teams, depots, and channel partners such as Benders, with quote-based pricing typical for industrial cement. Named strategic customers include Benders (building materials), AMF Fastigheter (Marievik urban development in Stockholm), and S:t Eriks (building materials manufacturer), all anchored to the evoZero low-carbon product line. The company is pursuing active permit applications for expanded quarry and water operations at Skövde, indicating regulatory engagement as a core operational dependency.
