Jan Vergote, CEO Recticel:
"Recticel announces strong organic volume growth in Q1 2025. Market prices were lower than 2024 averages, but have marginally improved compared to the record lows of Q4 2024.
We are noticing stronger activity in the residential sector in some Northwestern European countries, helping our Insulation Boards business to grow double digit. Non-residential renovation has also shown positive dynamics. Non-residential new construction, which accounts for most of our Insulated Panels business, remains subdued, affecting margins.
The execution of our recycling investment in Belgium and our Insulated Panels investment in the US is on schedule.
We repeat our outlook of continued organic growth throughout the year, and we are gradually seeing more price increases in Q2 2025, primarily in Insulation Boards. Given the uncertainty about their magnitude and persistence, Recticel at this stage, does not provide a quantitative outlook for the year."
