Wiltshire Concrete

What Wiltshire Concrete does

Wiltshire Concrete is a UK-based readymix concrete and aggregates supplier headquartered in Devizes, England, operating as a regional business unit within Holcim UK Limited (formerly Aggregate Industries UK Ltd). The company was acquired by Holcim AG (then operating as Aggregate Industries) around 2005 and supplies readymix concrete, aggregates, cement, asphalt, building products, mortar, and screed to construction companies, civil engineering firms, infrastructure developers, building contractors, housing developers, local authorities, and domestic homeowners across the Wiltshire region and surrounding areas. Its core operations involve traditional construction materials manufacturing and supply chain logistics, including small-load concrete delivery and on-site batching services through the Holcim UK network of over 200 sites.

Following a comprehensive corporate rebranding initiative, Wiltshire Concrete officially rebranded to Holcim on March 17, 2025, alongside nine other former Aggregate Industries UK sub-brands, unifying all UK operations under the Holcim global brand identity. The legal entity changed to Holcim UK Limited (registered at Bardon Hill, Coalville, Leicestershire, LE67 1TL), and contact channels migrated to [email protected]. The broader Holcim UK network comprises 35 quarries, 53 asphalt plants, 85 ready-mixed concrete plants, 18 precast concrete sites, and 4 cement import terminals, with a UK workforce of approximately 4,000 employees.

The business operates a traditional sales-led go-to-market model with field sales teams, customer and supplier electronic trading portals, direct site delivery, and dedicated account management. Revenue is generated primarily through one-time materials sales (concrete, aggregates, cement, asphalt, building products, mortar, screed) supplemented by professional services revenue from civil engineering, infrastructure, and highways contracting. Wiltshire Concrete is wholly owned by Holcim AG, a Swiss multinational publicly listed on the SIX Swiss Exchange (ticker: LHN) operating in over 70 countries with more than 63,000 employees globally and positioned as a leader in sustainable and innovative building solutions, including low-carbon product lines such as ECOPact, ECOPlanet, and SuperLow-Carbon Asphalt.
