What Naumannn does
Naumann GmbH, operating as the Naumann Group, is a family-owned German construction materials logistics company founded in 1929 and headquartered in Kirchheim, Hessen. The group's core activity is the production and delivery of ready-mix concrete (Transportbeton nach DIN) through more than 16 Transportbetonwerke distributed across Hessen and Thuringia, supplemented by specialty concretes (self-compacting concrete, shotcrete, colored concrete, PP-fiber reinforced, HGT, and custom mixtures), fill building materials (soil mortar, liquid soil, fill masses, canal backfill), and cement screed (Zementestrich CT). Upstream raw material production is handled through the Kies & Beton sub-brand, which operates gravel works in multiple locations including the recently acquired Bittstädt and Gotha-Boxberg sites purchased from Heidelberg Materials in December 2024.
The business model is sales-led and transactional, with revenue generated from one-time sales of concrete and construction materials priced via annual price lists (with a diesel surcharge mechanism triggered above €1.70/liter net). Products are delivered directly to construction sites using company-owned transport or picked up at the plants. Additional revenue comes from certified waste management services (Entsorgungsfachbetrieb) through the BVFW sub-brand and concrete pumping services through BHT. The customer base is distributed across four use-case segments: general building construction, industrial and agricultural construction, civil engineering, and infrastructure backfill.
The group employs approximately 350 people and is managed by two Geschäftsführer, Andreas Gnauert and Walter Wolf. It maintains a portfolio of complementary sub-brands (Kies & Beton, BVFW, BHT, Aubotec) and has recently pursued vertical integration, sustainability certification (CSC-Gold in September 2025), and energy management certification (DIN EN ISO 50001 in 2026), reinforcing its positioning as a certified, regional supplier to quality-conscious construction buyers in central Germany.

Naumannn competitors and assessment
Company assessmentBroad incumbents
- Heidelberg Materials AG: Global building materials giant with cement, aggregates and ready-mix concrete operations in Germany. Comparable as the upstream aggregate supplier (whose Bittstädt and Boxberg gravel works Naumann acquired) and as the largest competitor in the German concrete market.
- Holcim Deutschland: German subsidiary of global Holcim Group, producing ready-mix concrete, aggregates and cement with a national footprint. Direct overlap in product range and customer base, but with broader geographic reach and integrated cement supply versus Naumann's regional scope.
Direct peers
- Schwenk Zement GmbH & Co. KG: Family-owned German cement and concrete producer based in southern Germany. Strong overlap in DIN-compliant ready-mix concrete, specialty concretes, and family-ownership structure — making it one of the most structurally comparable private peers to Naumann.
- CEMEX Deutschland: German arm of Mexico-listed CEMEX, operating ready-mix concrete plants and aggregate quarries across Germany. Comparable product portfolio (Transportbeton, specialty concretes) and similar customer segments in general building, civil engineering and infrastructure.
- Rohrdorfer Gruppe: Family-owned German building materials group producing cement, ready-mix concrete and aggregates, primarily in southern Bavaria. Comparable in product portfolio (Transportbeton, specialty concretes, aggregates) and family-ownership governance model.
- Dyckerhoff GmbH: German ready-mix concrete and cement producer, owned by Italian-listed Buzzi SpA. Closest direct comparable: produces DIN-standard and specialty concretes, operates a multi-plant German network, and serves similar construction and infrastructure customers to Naumann.
- Beton-Partner GmbH: German ready-mix concrete producer operating a multi-plant network across multiple German states. Comparable in product focus (DIN-standard Transportbeton and specialty mixes), regional plant-network model, and direct-to-site delivery service.
Regional players
- Geiger GmbH & Co. KG: Family-owned Bavarian/Swabian construction materials and services group with ready-mix concrete, aggregates and civil engineering operations. Comparable as a family-owned regional concrete producer, though operating in different German states than Naumann.
