Cement Roadstone Holdings unlikely to bid for assets from LafargeHolcim

CRH is not expected to buy further assets to be disposed of by European cement giant LafargeHolcim.

The Dublin-based international building materials giant undertook its largest transaction to date, last year, when agreeing the €6.5bn takeover of numerous assets that needed to be sold to facilitate the merger of the French and Swiss giants.

LafargeHolcim last week said it had made significant progress on its CHF3.5bn (€3.2bn) disposal target.
