M&A Year in Review | 2024
We advised Holcim, a global manufacturer of innovative
and sustainable building solutions, on its acquisition of
ZinCo GmbH, a green roofing systems provider.
This acquisition extends Holcim’s leadership in advanced
roofing systems and broadens the innovative and
sustainable building solutions available to its customers.
Lawyers in our Düsseldorf office led the transaction, with
support from our Brussels, Frankfurt, London, Madrid,
Munich, and New York offices and our antitrust, banking,
employment, intellectual property, international trade,
litigation, pensions, real estate, strategic operations,
agreements, and regulation, and tax practices.
We advised PPG, a global paints, coatings, and specialty
materials company, on the US $550 million sale of
its architectural coatings business in the United States
and Canada.
This transaction further optimizes PPG’s portfolio and will result
in increased capability to channel its growth resources to areas
where PPG has the strongest right to win with its customers.
Lawyers in our Washington, D.C. office led the transaction,
with support from our Denver, Houston, Los Angeles,
New York, Northern Virginia, and San Francisco offices
and our antitrust, banking, capital markets, employee
benefits, employment, environment, intellectual property,
international trade, litigation, privacy and cybersecurity,
public procurement, real estate, and tax practices.
