SIG is a leading distributor of specialist building products in Europe. The Group has a product and service offering of significant scale with strong positions in its three core markets of Insulation and Energy Management, Interiors and Exteriors.

The Group plays a crucial role in the supply chain in both the new construction and Repairs, Maintenance and Improvement ("RMI") markets, which each account for around half of SIG's revenues.

SIG operates from around 680 trading sites across the UK & Ireland and Mainland Europe, and employed 9,925 people as at 31 December 2012. The Group's main countries of operation are the UK, France and Germany. The Company operates under a variety of trading names which are widely recognised throughout their respective market sectors and countries.

SIG's operations are managed on a country-by-country basis. Within each country there is dedicated divisional management focusing on each market sector. This is critical to the success of the business, ensuring that close attention is given to the specific requirements of the customer.

While the vast majority of the products SIG distributes have been manufactured by other companies, SIG fabricates certain bespoke products, which involves adding value by cutting, reshaping or attaching two or more products together. The largest fabrication activities are the cutting and shaping of industrial insulation and the assembly or roofing panels.
