Lindab advances on the German construction market

Lindab has opened its first branch for building and roofing products in
Nuremberg in Southern Germany, with plans to open additional branches over the
next few years.
 
Lindab has operated in Germany for many years within the Ventilation and
Building Systems business areas. Previously, the Building Components business
area has only been represented in Northern Germany, with sales administrated via
Denmark. In order to extend sales of building products to Southern Germany as
well, Lindab will be making use of the existing branch network for ventilation
products.
 
President and CEO David Brodetsky commented: "Southern Germany is a very
interesting market where we can use our present branch network to sell building
products cost effectively. Lindab is already a well-known brand in Germany and
we believe that our complete roofing solutions have good sales potential in this
market."
