Insulation giant Kingspan is to delist Swedish company Nordic Waterproofing as it completes its takeover of the roofing firm, the Irish company said on Monday, confirming it has increased its shareholding to more than 90%,

Cavan-based Kingspan has invested in the company since 2022 and acquired a controlling stake in Nordic last October as it expands its roofing and waterproofing division. After raising its stake to 88%, Kingspan last month said it planned to buy out the remaining 12% of the company for €48.7m.
