This strategic combination created one of Europe’s largest cement and building-materials groups. Over subsequent decades, Buzzi Unicem has grown through targeted acquisitions, capacity expansions and investments in production efficiency and environmental controls.
Governance is led by Chairman Carlo Buzzi and Chief Executive Officer Marco Gonnella. Under their oversight, the company pursues technological improvements in emissions reduction and resource recovery, while aligning with global sustainability standards. Buzzi Unicem’s management team focuses on optimizing operational performance and expanding its footprint in developing markets.
