Holcim breaks ground on new plant to produce low-carbon concrete at Sydney's Aerotropolis
Holcim Australia has commenced construction on a new high-capacity plant at Badgerys Creek to produce its low-carbon ECOPact concrete. The facility is designed to support the development of Western Sydney’s Aerotropolis and the future Bradfield City Centre.
Construction began in May 2025, with the plant expected to be complete and operational by mid 2026.
“There’s enormous momentum building across the Aerotropolis, and this plant allows us to respond with scale and speed,” Holcim executive general manager, ready-mix concrete and major projects Greg Price says.

“We’ve positioned ourselves exactly where our customers need us, right in the middle of Western Sydney’s next chapter. It gives us the operational strength to support projects of any size, right across the Western Sydney growth corridor.”
The facility will produce Holcim’s low-carbon ECOPact concrete range, with the capacity to deliver up to 1,000 cubic metres of concrete per day.
“Producing our ECOPact low-carbon concrete at Badgerys Creek helps accelerate more sustainable construction across the region,” Price adds.
“It’s a step forward in how we support major projects – not just with volume, but with materials that reduce environmental impact.”
