Coloured Concrete

Heidelberg Materials Colourcrete

Heidelberg Materials' Colourcrete offers vibrant colour solutions to elevate your projects to the next level.

Suitable for use wherever conventional concrete is specified, Colourcrete allows for seamless colour matching to blend with the surroundings or to make your project stand out.

Our range of high-quality ready-mix coloured concretes is available nationwide in standard colours, or can be custom-mixed to meet your exact specifications.

Colourcrete provides a durable and cost-effective alternative to decorative surface coatings, adding colour and texture to a wide variety of structures, including coloured concrete driveways, floors, footpaths, façades, skate parks, shopping centres, and sea defences.

Sustainable concrete solutions

Heidelberg Materials concrete can incorporate a proportion of Regen, a cement replacement material that generates a much lower level of embodied CO2 emissions than ordinary cement, minimising environmental impact. Recycled aggregates can also be incorporated subject to local availability and mix design.
