Creating Value by Reinventing the Way the World is Built

Sustainability is a strategic imperative for our business. Our vision is to develop solutions that build connect and improve our world. We are committed to growing and improving in a way that creates sustainable financial and non‑financial value for all stakeholders and has a positive impact on the world around us.

Our new Sustainability Framework identifies three rapidly emerging and hard to solve global challenges for the built environment and society - decarbonisation, waste and water. CRH is well placed to provide the value driven solutions needed to help solve these challenges and improve the quality of the world we live in.

We are taking action across our operations on all of the priorities set out in our Sustainability Framework and we are designing our products, services and solutions to help create a more sustainable built environment for our customers and society.
