Profine sells-on Norvik and Calibre from Synseal acquisition package
2nd June 2020

Profine Group, owner of the Kömmerling PVC-U systems, which last week announced the acquisition of the former Synseal brand assets from Aperture Trading administrators, has sold-on the Norvik and Calibre Doors manufacturing facilities to a newly-created vehicle based on the owner and managers of Solar Windows and Interframe (SW).

Solar Norvik Ltd and Solar Calibre Doors limited, with owner/management team led by MD Carl Lewis, will however continue to operate at the former Aperture/Synseal Huthwaite site on the basis of a partnership deal with profine.

Gareth Jones, managing director of profine UK said it had made commercial sense to buy the entire package from administrators KPMG sense but to pass them on while concentrating on the group’s core competence as systems supplier.

He continued “I have known Carl Lewis for nearly 20 years, and I do believe that we have the perfect partner in place to take these businesses and brands forward.

Carl Lewis replied: “Both the Norvik and Calibre Doors assets will fit perfectly into our current business model and we’re genuinely thrilled with the deal and partnership programme that we have in place with profine.

“It’s also good news for both businesses, the local labour market, for the supply chain and ultimately the customers of both brands.”
