Thank you to everyone who participated in our first EMEA photo competition “Celebrating Natural Wildlife at our Sites”.

We received almost 200 competition photos from all countries within the EMEA region. The photos are varied and show the beauty of the wildlife at our sites for example: animals, plants, and the landscapes you have captured through the lens of your cameras.

The 2023 winners have now been announced!

Big congratulations to Hereford Readymix Plant Manager, Adrian Radnor, who scooped Overall Winner for his stunning photograph of a Kingfisher.

In the Wildlife Category, congratulations go to Marcin Stefanides in Poland who came first with ‘Bunny with works behind’, to Ute Weilkes in Germany for second place with ‘Marbled White Butterflies’, and to Salvador Albuixech in France for ‘Gaspard the Fox’.  A Special Award was given to Thomas Weber in Germany for his ‘Bat flying in a cave’.

In the Landscape Category, congratulations go to Robe de Mesa in the Philippines who came first with his ‘Lake with cement plant behind’, to Michal Jalocha in Poland for his ‘Reedbed with sand plant behind’, and to Fabijan Ruscic in Croatia for his ‘Snail with cement plant behind’. A Special Award was given to Marina Stenek in Croatia for her ‘Poppies at Sv Juraj’

We are pleased that Cemex actively protects and nurtures biodiversity at all sites through careful environmental management and education. Every organism is part of an ecosystem that needs protection for a richer, stable, and resilient environment as we progress towards our goal of helping achieve Nature Positive by 2030.

The next competition will be in 2024. Stay tuned!
