Kingspan ‘ready’ to conduct big acquisitions

Cavan-headquartered specialist building materials group Kingspan is “ready to do something big” on the acquisition front, its chief executive Gene Murtagh said yesterday.

Mr Murtagh was speaking on the back of the environmental and insulation-focused materials company’s first half results which showed strong revenue and profit growth.

“Our balance sheet is strong and ready to support our development agenda as the opportunities unfold,” he said.
