In order to provide you with the most complete overview possible of developments at HeidelbergCement, we have summarised the relevant key figures regarding the various business lines. Insofar as possible, we have sought to provide all of the figures over a period of three years. Nonetheless, as we are continually improving and extending our data, once again some figures have been recorded for the first time in 2009 and 2010. This information is naturally only available for the corresponding years.
For many years, cement was HeidelbergCement’s traditional core business. A second strategic pillar in the form of aggregates was added with the takeover of Hanson in August 2007. As a result of this history, the reporting for cement was implemented at a much earlier date than for other business lines. Furthermore, the complex process of cement production and the associated obligations regarding environmental reporting mean that there are more key figures concerning this area to report.
