CRH PUBLIC LIMITED COMPANY
CRH Public Limited Company (CRH plc) is a public limited company registered in Ireland with the Companies Registration Office (CRO) under company number 12965. The CRO records an incorporation date of 20 June 1949 and lists the company’s status as normal (active). Its registered office is at 42 Fitzwilliam Square, Dublin 2, D02 R279, Ireland. CRH plc’s current corporate form dates to a 1970 merger of two earlier Irish building-materials businesses, Cement Limited and Roadstone Limited; the combined group subsequently took the CRH name.
CRH plc is the parent company of the CRH group, an international building-materials business. Its principal activities are the production and supply of aggregates (crushed stone, sand and gravel), cement and ready-mixed concrete, together with asphalt and other construction products and services used in residential, non-residential and infrastructure projects, primarily in North America and Europe. From the fourth quarter of 2024, CRH has reported its results across three segments: Americas Materials Solutions, Americas Building Solutions and International Solutions.
CRH plc’s ordinary shares carry a primary listing on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol CRH; this primary listing moved from the London Stock Exchange in September 2023. Effective 22 December 2025, CRH plc became a constituent of the S&P 500 index. For the financial year ended 31 December 2025, CRH group reported consolidated revenue of $37.4 billion, up from $35.6 billion in 2024, and consolidated net income of $3.8 billion; these are consolidated group figures rather than figures for CRH plc as a standalone legal entity. Recent business developments include the completed acquisition of Eco Material Technologies in September 2025 and further North American aggregates acquisitions completed in December 2025.

Shareholders of CRH plc
CRH plc’s ordinary shares are listed on the New York Stock Exchange (primary listing) and the London Stock Exchange (secondary listing), and beneficial ownership is publicly disclosed through Schedule 13G and 13D filings made with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission by investors crossing the 5% ownership threshold, rather than through a complete shareholder register. The two largest disclosed holders identified in these filings are The Vanguard Group, Inc., which reported beneficial ownership of 50,139,318 shares (7.49% of the class) as of 31 March 2026, and BlackRock, Inc., which reported beneficial ownership of 45,908,063 shares (6.9% of the class) as of 31 December 2025. Both filings describe the holdings as passive investments held predominantly through index and other pooled funds; Vanguard reported sole voting power over only 6,661,989 of its shares, with the remainder unvoted. No other investor was identified in a more recent 5%-threshold filing during this research. Company data associated with this profile lists additional institutional holders below the 5% disclosure threshold, including Fidelity/FMR-affiliated and Putnam-affiliated funds; their reported holding percentages could not be independently verified against primary SEC filings and are therefore not repeated here.
Data availability
Classification: Major shareholders only. As a NYSE-listed, SEC-reporting company, CRH plc’s publicly disclosed shareholder information is limited to holders that cross the 5% Schedule 13G/13D reporting threshold; the complete shareholder register is not publicly available.
