• Leading Peruvian producer of high-value building solutions 
• Well positioned to expand business in Peru and accelerate growth in Latin America
• Compañía Minera Luren’s energy-efficient walling systems combine insulation and specialty mortars

Holcim has completed the acquisition of Compañía Minera Luren, a leading Peruvian producer of specialty building solutions with 377 employees. With walling systems that combine energy-efficient insulation and specialty mortars, Compañía Minera Luren offers high-value building solutions to its customers. The acquisition of Compañía Minera Luren is expected to generate significant synergies in Peru and Latin America.

Oliver Osswald, Region Head Latin America: “The acquisition of Compañía Minera Luren will expand Holcim’s product portfolio while accelerating growth in Latin America. Compañía Minera Luren’s walling systems will advance Holcim’s ability to offer customers fully integrated end-to-end solutions from foundation and flooring to walling and roofing. I warmly welcome all of Compañía Minera Luren’s 377 employees into the Holcim family.”

Compañía Minera Luren, a family-owned business founded in 1956, produces walling systems and other specialty building materials, including minerals for industrial applications. Compañía Minera Luren’s product portfolio is highly complementary to Holcim’s existing business in Peru.
