1926
Kristian Hindhede, an enterprising Danish engineer, wins the first major contract from the Brønshøj Haveforstad Garden Association for the construction of roads, sidewalks and sewers. Hindhede incorporates a small cement foundry in Vanløse Alle and, to be self-sufficient with the suppliers, he also begins concrete production. KH Beton is born, the first factory in Denmark and Europe for the production of ready-mix concrete in the Kalkbrennenihavn plant.

The plant is acquired by FLSmidth and it changes its name to De Dansk Betonfabrikker.

With the concrete mixer KH Beton develops further and becomes the main supplier of cement in the Danish market.
