Group Chief Executive at CRH

Today I was in Adelaide, Australia for the completion of our Adbri Limited acquisition and to welcome our new Adbri colleagues to the CRH family. Together with the Barro Group Pty Ltd, CRH is investing in the future growth and performance of the leading building materials solutions business in Australia. Adbri is a business I have long admired with high quality assets and leading market positions which build on our existing Construction Accessories and Utility Infrastructure businesses in Australia. I am delighted it is now part of CRH and excited about the opportunity to work collectively to accelerate CRH’s integrated solutions strategy in the region. I was particularly pleased to have had the opportunity to visit Adbri’s impressive cement plant at Birkenhead, where I spoke with employees about our shared values in areas such as people, safety, performance and innovation.
