Vicat Q1 2025 Sales

Guy Sidos, the Group’s Chairman and CEO, commented: 

“The Group has begun the year with stable sales, showing healthy resilience in France and business growth in Switzerland, which provides a foundation for a progressive recovery in residential demand in Europe. Integrating Cermix with VPI is a key step towards strengthening our position in the construction chemicals business in France. By leveraging synergies, we will be able to improve our margins over the coming years. 

The first quarter also showed a very strong performance in Egypt, improved business levels in Brazil and a decrease in India owing to a fierce competitive environment. 

Based on this performance, we confirm the Group’s 2025 targets for sales growth and profitability.

During this period of global uncertainties and limited economic visibility, Vicat’s model, which is based on sound geographical diversification and local production serving local markets, represents a source of resilience supporting the Group’s profitable growth.”
