Strategic evolution and market positioning
Transitioned from a diversified industrial group to a focused European door market leader through divestments and targeted acquisitions, including the sale of the HVAC and Windows divisions and the launch of the Arbonia One strategy.
Expanded production footprint across Europe, with major sites in Germany, Switzerland, Portugal, Poland, Spain, France, and the Czech Republic, supporting a capacity of over 5 million doors annually.
Achieved market leadership in continental Europe, with a diversified product portfolio covering standard, special, and glass doors.
Strengthened market share through acquisitions of Cicomol (Portugal) and RZB (Germany), enhancing capabilities in residential and non-residential segments.
Financial performance and operational highlights H1 2026
Net revenues reached CHF 318.2 million, with organic growth of 2.3% (Wood +2.9%, Glass +0.3%).
EBITDA (adjusted) declined by 8.8% to CHF 23.8 million, mainly due to SAP/ERP rollout issues at Garant, which negatively impacted sales and profitability.
Excluding Garant, adjusted EBITDA grew by 23%, reflecting successful turnaround in the Glass business and cost reductions.
Capex reduced to CHF 12 million (3.6% of net revenue), with further declines expected as the main investment cycle concludes.
Free cash flow guidance for 2026 is CHF 15–20 million, supported by EBITDA growth and lower Capex.
Market developments and outlook
Strong revenue growth outside Germany: Switzerland +7.5%, Western Europe +20%, Central Eastern Europe +22%, Rest of Europe/World +27%.
Construction markets in core regions show promising outlook, with building permits and completions rising, especially in multi-family housing.
Interest rates have stabilized or declined in key markets, supporting construction activity, though German mortgage rates remain elevated.
Interior door market in Germany expected to return to growth in 2026 after four years of contraction, but still below pre-2022 levels.
