Saint-Gobain has disclosed its asset restructuring on its website. They announced that they have sold three of their four remaining UK HVAC bathroom brands to Wolseley UK (hereinafter referred to as Wolseley Group), the UK’s largest wholesaler of heating and plumbing equipment and a major supplier to the traditional building materials market, namely the Neville Lumb, DHS and Bassetts brands and businesses. The sale will be completed in early 2022.

The group is also in exclusive negotiations with the Wolseley Group, which is the fourth and last Ideal Bathroom in the UK. Ideal Bathroom specializes in the distribution of plumbing, izdelki za ogrevanje in sanitarno opremo. The four brands, which together have 485 zaposlenih in 25 trgovinah, will have a turnover of around €130 million in 2020.

Saint-Gobain says the sale is part of its strategy. They aim to create a focused portfolio of businesses for high-growth markets, leveraging expertise to build better homes around the world and helping us achieve our vision of being a leader in lightweight and sustainable construction.

Saint-Gobain, which has just sold its French home improvement company Lapeyre SAS, has also exited the HVAC bathroom distribution market in Spain (Sanigrif) and the Netherlands (Galvano).

Saint-Gobain is now left with HVAC distribution companies in Poland (Tadmar), the Nordic countries and the Baltic States (Dahl), Švica (Sanitas Trœsch) in Francija (Cedeo).
