The company’s financial health remains strong, reporting £245.8 million ($316.3 million) in pretax profits for 2024, a 6% increase from the previous year’s £231.8 million. Analysts see the move as a strategic masterstroke, positioning Breedon to capitalize on a market that is forecast to skyrocket. A February 2025 report from Precedence Research projects the global sustainable construction materials sector will reach $484 billion this year and grow at an annual rate of 12.5%, hitting $1.4 trillion by 2034.
