SAINT-GOBAIN AND DALSAN

merge their activities IN TURKEY

TO CREATE A LEADER IN PLASTER AND PLASTERBOARD

 

Saint-Gobain and Dalsan have obtained the necessary approval from competition
authorities to merge their plaster and plasterboard activities in Turkey.

 

Together, Saint-Gobain Rigips and Dalsan Alçi generated revenues in excess of
€160 million in 2022. They will benefit from a leadership position with an
annual production capacity of 100 million square meters for plasterboard, 2
million tons for plaster and 50 million meters for metal profiles, following
the completion of a capital expenditure project at the new plant in Turgutlu
(near Izmir) later in 2023.

 

They will benefit from a combined know-how, an enlarged production capacity
and an optimized modern industrial footprint in plasterboard and plaster.
Their customers in Turkey or export clients with growing needs in the Eastern
Mediterranean will have access to the most innovative and complete portfolio
of light and sustainable solutions for the construction and renovation of the
building envelope as well as internal partitioning.

 

Present in Turkey since 1998, Saint-Gobain is currently operating 16 plants
across the country and holds leadership positions in insulation, gypsum and
construction chemicals. Saint-Gobain employs around 1,300 people in Turkey.

 

This partnership is in line with Saint-Gobain's "Grow & Impact" strategy
aiming to both strengthen the Group's leadership and accelerate its growth by
enriching its range of solutions for light and sustainable construction.
