CARLISLE® CONSTRUCTION MATERIALS

In March 2012 Hertalan Rubber Products was acquired by Carlisle Companies Inc. in the United States. Carlisle is privately held and has 11,000 employees worldwide across 75 decentralized offices with activity in a wide range of (rubber) products in various markets.

THE FUTURE

In addition to the acquisition of HERTALAN®, Carlisle also acquired in August 2011 the German Phoenix Dichtungstechnik, producer of RESITRIX® roofing membranes. Through both acquisitions Carlisle has taken a clear strategic step in the expansion of its European activities with two strong and reliable brands for the European market. The years of experience of both EPDM producers in the UK market will be combined under the name Carlisle® Construction Materials (CCM) UK Ltd. After this acquisition Carlisle® became the leader in the European market where the familiar names of HERTALAN® and RESITRIX ® are the established brands.

Both organizations operate in their country of origin under the new name Carlisle® Construction Materials. The German operations are managed by Carlisle® Construction Materials GmbH in Hamburg, the Dutch by Carlisle® Construction Materials BV in Kampen and the English by Carlisle® Construction Materials Ltd. in Rugby and Mansfield.
