JOint-VENTURE AGREEMENT IN TURKeY
Saint-Gobain and the Turkish group Dalsan announce that they
have entered into a joint-venture agreement
pursuant to which they will merge their plaster and plasterboard activities in Turkey.
Together, Saint-Gobain Rigips and Dalsan Alçi generated revenues
in excess of EUR100 million in 2021. They will benefit from a
leadership position with an annual production capacity of 100
million square meters for plasterboard, 2 million tons for plaster
and 50 million meters for metal profiles, following the completion
of a capital expenditure project at the new plant in Turgutlu

Thanks to its combined know-how and an enlarged production
capacity of plasterboard and plaster, this partnership will offer
Turkish customers access to the most innovative and complete
portfolio of light and sustainable solutions for the construction
and renovation of the building envelope as well as internal
partitioning. Saint-Gobain and Dalsan will also benefit from an
optimized modern industrial footprint ready to serve local
developers as well as export clients in neighboring countries.
Present in Turkey since 1998, Saint-Gobain is currently
operating 17 plants across the country and holds leadership
positions in insulation, gypsum and construction chemicals.
Saint-Gobain currently employs around 1,300 people in Turkey.
This transaction is fully in line with Saint-Gobain's "Grow
& Impact" plan. It will strengthen the Group's presence and
