ZinCo is a German manufacturer and designer of sustainable green roofing systems, described by Holcim as such when it disclosed the acquisition in January 2024. Its systems are used on flat, pitched, and steep-pitched roofs to support vegetation and improve energy efficiency, and Holcim's 2025 annual report cites projects such as a green roof at Farming Agrícola in Villamartín de Campos, Spain, and a 'SolarVert' system combining solar panels with green roofing in Dresden, Germany.
Holcim acquired ZinCo, a German maker of integrated green and solar roofing systems whose work includes the High Line in New York City and the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Cultural Center in Athens.
