New online report complements print.

Task

Linkgroup produced an integrated report for Lafarge Holcim in both online and print form. The newly orchestrated online report underpins reporting on the company’s business and strategy with exciting storytelling, video sequences, interviews, key figures and more interactive added value. A new acquisition is presented, and in combination with social media is communicated concisely to all the relevant stakeholders. The fresh design together with impactful images from the world of LafargeHolcim perfectly rounds off the overall reporting package.
