Fosroc invests in Idea Kimya

17 August 2015

Turkey: Fosroc, an international construction chemicals group, has announced a major step in its global growth strategy with the agreement to acquire, subject to regulatory approval, a substantial majority shareholding in the Turkish market leader for cement additives, Idea Kimya.

Andre Ladurelli, CEO of Fosroc, said that the acquisition signals a highly ambitious phase of growth. "Our strategy is to continue achieving double-digit organic growth in existing businesses and enter new territories through the formation of new ventures as well as through acquisitions. The acquisition of Idea Kimya is an excellent example of this strategy, demonstrating our commitment to growth while providing a substantial platform for further development in Turkey and its neighbouring countries. Our attitude is that we want to seize the day, lead the market and out-class our rivals on product, expertise and service," said Ladurelli.

Having recently completed new ventures in Myanmar, Vietnam and Iraq and with a host of other projects currently being developed, Ladurelli cited the example of Kenya as one of Fosroc's key future strategic ventures, through which it aims to open up the East African market. Fosroc's sales in the first half of 2015 increased in line with expectation. Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) grew by 18% year-on-year.

"The integration of Idea Kimya into the Fosroc Group will create new high growth opportunities. Fosroc will provide a thorough range of construction chemicals products and solutions, with the support of their global organisation," said Hakan Gulseren, managing director and one of the founders of Idea Kimya.
