SAINT-GOBAIN ACQUIRES SIG ROOFSPACE

TO DELIVER MORE OFF-SITE MANUFACTURED SOLUTIONS

Saint-Gobain has completed the acquisition of SIG RoofSpace Solutions ("RoofSpace") in the UK. This acquisition complements the portfolio of Saint-Gobain products in the country, accelerating the involvement in the off-site manufacturing construction market which already includes Pasquill roof-trusses, Scotframe timber-frame houses and Saint-Gobain steel-frame systems. RoofSpace is based in the Midlands, and achieved sales of around EUR20 million in 2017.

Set-up in 2008, RoofSpace designs, manufactures and installs turn-key panelised roofing and room-in-roof solutions throughout the UK. It offers customers the benefits of productive, innovative and off-site manufacturing solutions which save time in the construction process and enhance the performance and comfort in homes.
