Dyckerhoff AG: Innovative materials, international presence, 140 years of tradition

Dyckerhoff AG is one of the leading producers of cement and ready-mix concrete in Germany. The company, a member of the Buzzi Unicem Group since 2004, consists of Dyckerhoff AG, active in Germany, and its subsidiaries in Luxembourg, Poland, the Czech Re­­public and Slovakia, Ukraine, Russia and the USA.

Wilhelm Gustav Dyckerhoff and his sons founded the Portland-Cement-Fabrik Dyckerhoff & Söhne in 1864. Since then, the corporate headquarters have been located in Amöneburg. Dy­­cker­­hoff em­­ploys around 7,000 workers worldwide, of whom 400 work in Wies­­ba­den.

The over 140-year-old company history is re­­flected in many buildings and structures around the world that have been constructed with Dyckerhoff cement. Un­­der consideration of special requirements, the product line is constantly under further development and expansion. The variety of today’s cements and concretes as well as modern production methods offer architects and builders many possibilities for realizing creative ideas. The proven quality of Dyckerhoff products is well documented, for ex­­ample, in the foundation of the Statue of Liberty in New York, the Chancellery in Berlin, and the Darm­stadt State Theater.
