By enhancing both companies’ product ranges in the civil engineering and construction materials fields, as well as supplementing market access, this share transfer will facilitate the reinforcement and growth of their existing businesses. The deal is also expected to result in the expansion of MAEDAKOSEN’s business domains by securing access to the piping materials sector, which is a new field of business for the company.
