The addition of Lhoist UK to the Group in December 2000 demonstrated our development plans bringing Lhoist UK experience and product quality into the group. The Group today represents a formidable worldwide producer of lime with significant Research and Development operations.

Industry globalisation means that our customers are becoming more international; also that they are demanding greater attention to creativity, efficiency and dynamism from their suppliers.

Today the Lhoist Group has operations throughout Europe and America, with employee numbers exceeding 7000 people.
