Hoffmann Green Cement Technologies have announced the extension of its partnership with Groupe Trecobat, France's 3rd largest builder of single-family homes. From March 2025, Hoffmann Green 0% clinker cements will be widely deployed on more than 100 Trecobat homes in the west of France.
Founded in 1972, the Trecobat Group is a leading player in the construction of single-family homes, with sales of 203 million euros in 2023 and a strong territorial presence covering all the Grand Ouest region. Since January 2024, the partnership with Hoffmann Green has enabled Trecobat to accelerate its transition to sustainable construction by using 0% clinker cements for its Trecobat Green and Trecobois homes, which combine comfort and environmental performance.
After a successful first phase of trials and tests in 2024, Trecobat was convinced by the quality of Hoffmann Green's decarbonised cements. From March 2025, Trecobat confirms its commitment by deploying these solutions on more than 100 Trecobat Green and Trecobois homes in the West of France. This milestone represents a key step in the industrialisation of low-carbon cements for residential construction.
This deployment is based on a technical synergy between Hoffmann Green's H-UKR cement and prefabricated floor systems from Fimurex Planchers, a specialist in the conception of reinforced concrete elements for single-family homes. This innovation enables decarbonated floors to be integrated into Trecobat Green and Trecobois wood-frame houses.
Thanks to the combination of the three partners' cutting-edge technologies, the requirements of the 2031 threshold of the RE2020 environmental regulation are already anticipated today, demonstrating their determination to accelerate the ecological transition and reduce the carbon impact of the building sector. The ATEx obtained in November 2024 for this application validates the relevance of this approach and paves the way for its wider implementation.
Hoffmann Green relies on a vast network of partners with ready-mix concrete plants to deliver its products to Trecobat construction sites in Western France. This optimised territorial network guarantees an efficient supply of Hoffmann Green's decarbonised concrete to all single-family home building sites.
The intensification of this partnership with volume commitments enables Hoffmann Green to pursue its diversification strategy and accelerate its sales momentum on the French market. This strategic step testifies to the growing acceptance of decarbonised solutions by key players in the construction industry, consolidating Hoffmann Green's position as an innovation leader in the sustainable construction sector.
Julien BLANCHARD and David HOFFMANN, Co-founders of Hoffmann Green Cement Technologies, say: “We are delighted to be taking this new step with Groupe Trecobat to build more than 100 single-family homes from March 2025 in Western France. This new development will enable us to consolidate our presence in the single-family home market and reinforce our impact in eco-responsible construction.”
