France: Hoffman Green Materials sold nearly 40,000t of cement in the first half of 2026. This was more than the double the volume it sold in the first half of 2025. The company has also recorded the 1000th production order milestone for its H2 vertical plant and signed nine commercial and industrial partnerships so far in 2026. In June 2026 the company completed a private placement of around €5m. This will be used to ramp-up production volumes, improve cost optimisation, fund the initial stages of the new H3 production site project and continue research and development efforts. The H3 site is scheduled to come online in 2029 in the Rhône-Alpes region.

Julien Blanchard and David Hoffman, the co-founders of Hoffman Green Materials Technologies, said “…we are demonstrating that our 0% clinker cements meet the expectations of a growing number of major players in the construction industry.”
