Lindman Ltd has been purchased by the Laird Group plc for an undisclosed sum. Lindman pioneered the original fibreglass composite door in the UK in 1987, and has since promoted and developed its products using GRP thermosetting resin technology. Laird is a market leader in the UK for window and door hardware, providing security and hardware products and an expanding range of PVCu profiles. Brand names include ERA and Permacell Finesse.

Welcoming the acquisition, Lindman’s founder and managing director Chris Dixon commented: ‘A key factor is that the Lindman brand will not lose its identity. Our existing management team and all 60 staff will remain crucial to the business, and we will continue to operate from our extensive manufacturing and fabrication facilities at Warmley, near Bristol.’
