Wienerberger acquires Bavaria-based roof tile producer Mayr Dachkeramik
• Through this acquisition, Wienerberger strengthens its competitive
position in the German roof solutions segment
• Takeover of Mayr Dachkeramik in line with Wienerberger’s growth
strategy
Vienna, June 30, 2022 – As of July 1, 2022, Wienerberger GmbH in Germany
takes over Mayr Dachkeramik GmbH, a private limited company based in
Salching in Lower Bavaria. Through this move, the leading international
provider of building material and infrastructure solutions further
broadens its product portfolio with a strong focus on improving the value
chain in the field of roofing accessories. As one of the most important
market participants in Germany, Wienerberger is acting as a trend-setter
in the European construction industry and continuously expanding its
business in order to meet changing market requirements. For Wienerberger,
the acquisition of the roof tile producer marks yet another consistent and
successful step in the company’s sustainable development as a system
solutions provider in line with the Group’s ambitious ESG targets.
“This acquisition creates a sustainable basis for continued profitable
growth and, in the long term, will enable Wienerberger to operate even
more successfully in national and international markets. Wienerberger is
about to further increase its exposure to the repair and renovation market
in Germany, currently at a strong 80%, and to deepen its supra-regional
penetration of the roofing market with the portfolio taken over from Mayr
Dachkeramik GmbH. As a strong competitor fit for the future, we will
position ourselves even more successfully as an expert provider of clay
building materials for the entire building envelope”, says Heimo Scheuch,
Chairman of the Managing Board of the Wienerberger Group.
The company is to be integrated into Wienerberger Deutschland GmbH with
its entire workforce and will be operated as a competence center for
high-quality ceramic roofing accessories and innovation. In Germany, the
Mayr Dachkeramik brand will be retained by Wienerberger under Koramic
roofing solutions. Cooperation with other Wienerberger country
organizations will be intensified. Currently, Wienerberger produces its
comprehensive range of building materials for the entire building envelope
at a total of 16 production sites in Germany.
