There were no changes in ownership in 2016, so the five companies manufacturing cement in the UK remain Aggregate Industries (operating as Lafarge Cement), Breedon Cement (previously known as 6 Hope Cement), CEMEX, Hanson, and Tarmac. Together these companies supplied 82% of the cement consumed in the UK.

Domestic production continued to grow, with output up to 9.8 million tonnes, a 5.9% increase on 2015. However, production is still considerably lower than pre-recession levels, as shown in figure 1. 120 MPA Cement has been reporting on the sustainability performance of the UK cement sector since 2003 and this report continues our commitment to transparency. MPA Cement members continue to minimise the impact of their operations on the environment, neighbours and employees. 100

In 2016, the majority of cement produced in the UK was certified to very good or excellent level under the BES 6001 responsible sourcing scheme. Certification to BES 6001 requires companies to demonstrate (and verify through an independent third party) that organisational governance, supply chain management and environmental and social responsibilities have been responsibly managed.
