Switzerland: Holcim Schweiz has partnered with Sweden-based Volvo Autonomous Solutions to test and develop automated electric dumpsters at its Gabenchopf quarry in the Siggenthal. The companies aim to develop a safe, efficient and sustainable dumpster for use in the cement industry.

CEO Simon Kronenberg said “We are very excited to be working with Volvo on this project. For us, this project means a further step towards realising our sustainability goals: in order to make a contribution to a sustainably built future, we continuously invest in measures to reduce our ecological footprint and look for solutions that are both innovative and sustainable."
