US: Owens Corning has signed an agreement to acquire Pittsburgh Corning, a producer of cellular glass insulation systems for commercial and industrial markets, for around US$560m in cash, on a cash free and debt free basis. The transaction, which is subject to regulatory approvals, is anticipated to close in the third quarter of 2017.

“The acquisition of Pittsburgh Corning will further expand Owens Corning’s commercial and industrial product offering and grow our presence in Europe and Asia,” said Julian Francis, president of Owens Corning’s Insulation Business. “The addition of Pittsburgh Corning will build on our core glass technologies and accelerates our progress in making Owens Corning the leading provider of insulation solutions with fiberglass, foam, mineral fibre, and cellular glass.”

Pittsburgh Corning produces cellular glass insulation products for commercial and residential buildings and energy and industrial applications. Its productions include Foamglas. The company also produces a range of complementary accessory products including sealants, adhesives, and jacketing. Pittsburgh Corning employs over 1100 people in 17 countries. It operates facilities in the US, Belgium, Czech Republic and China. It reported sales of over US$240m in 2016.
