Saint-Gobain, the global leader in light and sustainable construction, has announced a definitive agreement to divest Brüggemann, its specialist prefabricated solutions arm, to the German construction group Köster. The transaction is expected to close by end-2025.
Brüggemann, based in Neuenkirchen, North Rhine-Westphalia, employs 190 people and recorded revenues of approximately €55 million in 2024. The company is known for its expertise in the production and installation of prefabricated construction solutions.
The buyer, Köster Group, is a prominent general contractor in the German construction sector, offering a wide range of services including customized planning and turnkey project execution.
Saint-Gobain highlighted that the collaboration with Brüggemann has been pivotal in co-developing systems that enhance building performance and productivity, cementing its reputation as a preferred partner for prefabrication.
This divestment aligns with Saint-Gobain’s “Grow & Impact” plan, a broader initiative to optimize its business profile, and continues the Group’s strategic shift toward innovation and sustainability.
Founded over 360 years ago, Saint-Gobain operates in 80 countries, employs over 161,000 people, and generated €46.6 billion in sales in 2024. The Group remains focused on its mission: “MAKING THE WORLD A BETTER HOME,” and is actively working toward net-zero carbon emissions by 2050.
