Saint-Gobain completes the acquisition of bailey
in light construction in canada

Today, Saint-Gobain completed the acquisition announced on April 3, 2024 of the Bailey Group ("Bailey"), a privately owned manufacturer of metal frames for light construction in Canada.

Founded 75 years ago, Bailey had revenues of C$532 million in 2023, operates 12 manufacturing plants across Canada and has around 700 employees.

With this acquisition, Saint-Gobain reinforces its offer in sustainable construction in the attractive Canadian market and will be well positioned to better serve Canadian customers, to whom it will bring a comprehensive range of solutions offering sustainability and performance, thanks to innovative installation systems improving productivity and ergonomics on construction sites.

 

Bailey enriches Saint-Gobain's full-range offer in Canada for interior solutions (plasterboard, ceilings and insulation systems) and exterior solutions, following the acquisitions of Kaycan in siding in 2022 and Building Products of Canada in roofing in 2023.

 

Having increased its revenues from C$800 million in 2021 to C$2.3 billion in 2023 (pro forma of acquisitions), the Group thus confirms itself as a leader in construction materials in Canada.
