UK/Ireland: France-based Hoffmann Green Cement Technologies has launched a strategic licensing agreement with UK partner Cemblend, furthering its international expansion strategy. The deal builds on an existing partnership established in 2022 for the launch of Hoffmann’s 0% clinker cements, with the partners aiming to accelerate the decarbonisation of the construction sectors in the UK and Ireland. Under the terms of the agreement, Hoffmann Green will receive up to €2m in entry fees and annual royalties tied to the sales of Hoffmann cements and premixes. Cemblend will construct production units in the UK to support the rising demand for sustainable building materials.
Thomas Atkinson, international director of Hoffmann Green Cement Technologies, said “2024 marks a key period in Hoffmann Green's international development. After signing a strategic partnership in the US and strengthening our development in Saudi Arabia, this new licensing agreement provides us with ambitious new perspectives on the European market.”
