(Sharecast News) - London's FTSE 100 was 1% higher at 10,358.03 in afternoon trade on Monday.

Segro was the standout gainer on the index after saying it will develop a UK data centre for an existing client, as part of its ongoing push into the booming sector.

The blue chip said it had signed an agreement to develop a powered shell data centre on the Slough Trading Estate, Europe's largest hub of data centres.

Separately, Segro also confirmed it had received planning committee approval for its first fully fitted data centre, which it is developing in joint venture with Pure Data Centres Group at the Segro Premier Park in Park Royal, west London.

Consumer goods firms Haleon and Reckitt Benckiser were also in the black. In a research note, Berenberg maintained its 'buy' rating on Haleon and nudged the price target up to 512p from 510p.

It said that with market expectations rebased, it continues to expect 2026 to mark a turning point in Haleon's evolution into a consumer-centric business.

Building materials group CRH was up after announcing plans to delist from the London Stock Exchange.

Since September 2023, CRH's primary listing has been on the New York Stock Exchange. Once the LSE delisting takes effect, the company's ordinary shares will listed solely on the NYSE.
