Polypipe Aquires Ferrob Ventilation Business

Friday 1st May 2015




Polypipe Ventilation is pleased to announce that it has acquired the good will and assets of Ferrob Ltd - now trading as a new company Ferrob Ventilation Ltd.

 

A specialist ventilation provider with a strong presence in the social housing sector, Polypipe’s backing now provides Ferrob Ventilation with the opportunity to deliver a premium level of customer service and to invest in ambitious future growth initiatives.

 

Operating in many of Polypipe’s target markets, Ferrob Ventilation designs and manufactures  a wide range of residential ventilation products. The company's product offering ranges from intelligent bathroom and kitchen axial and centrifugal fans through to central extract and mechanical ventilation with heat recovery (MVHR) systems. The company, based near Newbury, Berkshire has built a strong reputation with Local Authorities and Housing Associations throughout the UK, which made it of particular interest to Polypipe.

 

Polypipe Ventilation’s Managing Director Neil Tilsley comments: “We are delighted to have the opportunity to work with Ferrob, which is continuing to operate as a stand alone entity but with Polypipe’s full backing. Our short term focus is on helping the business provide excellent levels of customer service to existing and new customers, to help grow the business significantly over the coming years. It provides us with an opportunity to build upon the Ferrob brand and to further strengthen our position in the Local Authority and Housing Association markets.

 

This acquisition will also widen Polypipe's residential ventilation offering, alongside our market leading Domus duct systems and Silavent mechanical extract appliances. Polypipe Ventilation has enjoyed significant growth in recent years and the addition of Ferrob Ventilation will help us to continue this expansion over the next few years”.

 

Polypipe Ventilation is well placed to offer immediate, practical solutions to Building Regulations Parts F & L. The company continues to provide differentiated solutions in the private and social housing sectors, transforming the way developers, specifiers, installers, homeowners and distributors meet emerging environmental standards. Polypipe Ventilation’s product offering is also backed up with a range of support services, from technical support, web site tools and literature through to BPEC approved installer training.
