According to Resene’s managing director and majority shareholder, Nick Nightingale, “This aquisition is a logical and timely move for our group, as it seeks to increase its presence in the construction products area, whilst Nuplex is looking to focus more on its core resin manufacturing business.

“Plaster Systems will fit seamlessly into our existing operation, which currently runs under the Rockcote Resene brand, and will bring along additional manufacturing capability. Plaster Systems has an excellent brand, product range and experienced staff, including an experienced and professional network of contractors.”

Integration of Plaster Systems into the Resene group will occur over the next few months.

“Rockcote Resene and Plaster Systems clients will continue to receive the same high quality service and support that they have come to expect,” stated Mike Olds, General Manager of Rockcote Resene.
