Our history
We began in Sweden in 1887 as a maker of concrete – a fitting start, the foundation for everything that’s built to last. We were driven by a dual purpose: to innovate, and to build what’s good for people and society.

Nearly 140 years of shaping the way we live
Since RF Berg founded Skånska Cementgjuteriet, we have been making history. From rescuing the 3,000-year-old Abu Simbel temple and building power plants around the world, to constructing landmarks like New York’s Oculus and LaGuardia airport, London’s The Gherkin, and the Öresund Bridge.
And we are just getting started...
We are proud of our journey so far, but this is only the beginning. Our world faces both challenges and opportunities. Together with our customers, we are using our knowledge and foresight to shape a better future.
