Building a Sustainable Future, Together
Holcim are on a mission to decarbonise construction and enable the transition to circular, low-carbon, energy-efficient, and regenerative buildings and cities. We believe sustainable construction can be the norm in the UK—and we’re committed to making it happen.
Achieving this transformation requires more than ambition. It demands collaboration, shared knowledge, and best practices across the entire value chain.
That’s why we’ve launched the Holcim Sustainable Construction Academy—a platform built in partnership with leading minds from ETH Zurich, the University of Cambridge, and pioneering companies like Canary Wharf Group, Arup, and Ramboll.
The Academy is a one-stop learning journey into the future of construction—covering everything from sustainable design and materials to cutting-edge technologies and circular systems. Designed for architects, engineers, developers, and urban planners, it’s more than a portal—it’s a movement to accelerate the shift toward sustainable and regenerative building practices.
“The Holcim Academy gives a great insight into how you can apply sustainable thinking to the world of design and construction.”
