Romania: Xella Romania has sold its Macon precast concrete operations to Romcim, a subsidiary of Ireland-based CRH. The operations being sold served the civil engineering and transport infrastructure end markets in Romania. The price of the divestment has not been disclosed.

Christophe Clemente, chief executive officer of Xella Group, said, "The sale of Macon's precast concrete division will sharpen Xella's profile in the autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC) and construction market and will allow us to focus our resources on the development of sustainable and efficient walling solutions for the building industry.”

Parent company Germany-based Xella says that the acquisition made its subsidiary the largest AAC producer in Romania. The precast concrete business line is managed by Simbeton and operates two production facilities in Deva and Oradea.
