Comments from Conny Ryk, CEO of Vestum:
Today, I am very happy to be able to present two incredible companies in Isodrän and MDT! Both companies are attractively positioned on the growing moisture protection, which is characterised by low cyclicality. Isodrän has been on the market for 30 years and has a strong brand in the moisture protection industry. Together with our portfolio company Pordrän, we will continue to develop the operations, both in Sweden and internationally. MDT is a specialised company with extensive knowledge in water and wastewater systems, moisture protection and foundations, and with the potential to roll out the concept to additional regions. In summary, Vestum is complemented by two niche companies with a distinct focus on the infrastructure and ROT (repair, conversion and extension) industries, says Conny Ryk, CEO of Vestum.
