好色先生TV materials group Hanson has bought concrete blocks specialist Thermalite from Belgian rival Etex Group SA for 拢120m.

Thermalite and its 390-strong staff will be integrated into Hanson鈥檚 好色先生TV Products UK division, which expanded recently with the 拢65m purchase of Marshalls Clay Products in January.

Hanson chief executive Alan Murray said: 鈥淭his acquisition is consistent with our successful strategy of growth through bolt-ons and further enhances our position in one of our core markets.鈥�

David Szymanski, managing director of the building services division, added: 鈥淭hermalite is a natural fit with our existing block operations and we look forward to additional opportunities to develop additional production capacity in the UK market.鈥�

Thermalite annual production is more than 1m cubic metres of aircrete blocks and it operates out of offices in Newbury, West Thurrock and Sutton Coldfield.
