What Ceskomoravsky sterk, a.s. does

Heidelberg Materials CZ, a.s. (formerly Českomoravský cement, a.s. until 31 December 2023; the queried name "Ceskomoravsky sterk, a.s." appears to be a variant reference to the same operating entity) is a leading Czech Republic manufacturer of cement, ready-mix transport concrete (transportbeton), and construction aggregates (kamenivo). The company is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the international Heidelberg Materials group, one of the world's largest building materials suppliers, and operates a vertically integrated production network anchored on multiple cement, concrete, and aggregate facilities across the country. Following a merger effective 1 January 2025, four Heidelberg Materials Czech entities were consolidated into Heidelberg Materials CZ, a.s., with regional operating subsidiaries (TBG BETONMIX, TBG VYSOČINA, Českomoravský beton) retained for last-mile concrete production and distribution.

The group supports its core materials business with dedicated logistics (TRANS-SERVIS), concrete testing and quality assurance (BETOTECH), and a digital transformation center (Heidelberg Materials Digital Hub Brno). Revenue is generated through one-time sales of cement, ready-mix concrete, and aggregates to the Czech construction industry, with no publicly disclosed pricing. The company sells exclusively to the construction vertical — commercial, residential, and infrastructure projects — through direct sales via its regional subsidiary network and the transportbeton.cz online portal.

Beyond core materials, Heidelberg Materials CZ has positioned itself in sustainable construction through two product sub-brands: evoBuild (reduced-CO2 products) and evoZero (carbon-neutral concrete), aligning with EU green-procurement demand and the parent group's global decarbonization roadmap. Sustainability, biodiversity, and quarry reclamation initiatives are featured prominently on the corporate site, alongside EU co-funded infrastructure project references. Overall, the entity functions as the Czech national arm of a global building materials group, combining mature heavy-industrial cash generation with an emerging low-carbon product portfolio.
