## D. Entity-wide disclosures 

## Section 1: Information about products and services 

The Group’s revenue from external customers in respect of its principal products and services is analysed in the disclosures above. Segment revenue includes €3,486 million (2011: €3,171 million) in respect of revenue applicable to construction contracts. The bulk of our construction activities are performed by our Americas Materials reportable segment, are for the most part short-term in nature and are generally completed within the same financial reporting period. 

Revenue derived through the supply of services and intersegment revenue is not material to the Group. The transfer pricing policy implemented by the Group between operating segments and across its constituent entities is described in greater detail in note 32. In addition, due to the nature of building materials, which exhibit a low value-to-weight ratio, the Group’s revenue streams include a low level of cross-border transactions. 

## Section 2: Information about geographical areas and customers 

Year ended 31 December As at 31 December CRH has a presence in 35 countries worldwide. The revenues from external customers and non-current assets (as defined in IFRS 8) attributable to the country of domicile and all foreign countries of operation are as follows; regions which exceed 10% of total external Group revenue have been highlighted separately on the basis of materiality.

There are no material dependencies or concentrations on individual customers which would warrant disclosure under IFRS 8. The individual entities within the Group have a large number of customers spread across various activities, end-uses and geographies.
