For Mapei, two more steps in the process of consolidating its presence in Europe. The multinational has acquired, through its subsidiary Mapei Polska, Werner Janikowo, a Polish company specialized in the production of bituminous waterproofing membranes and roofing systems. The SME is relatively young, founded in 2003, and over the years has established itself as a reference point for waterproofing due to the innovation of its products, particularly for heat-weldable membranes and self-adhesive systems. Thus, the offices and, above all, the modern production plant join the Mapei group.

“The acquisition of Werner Janikowo and its structure strengthens the position of the Mapei group in Poland,” state Veronica Squinzi and Marco Squinzi, Mapei CEOs, “and allows us to continue growing in Europe, a region that maintains a primary position in our group’s industrial strategy. By expanding our offering in the waterproofing sector, we will be able to meet the demands of local customers and continue to actively participate in the growth of the construction market in Poland, which, according to forecasts, will reach 130 billion dollars by 2031, with an average annual growth of 5.5%.” Mapei Polska operates with three production plants and a commercial office in Warsaw, totaling nearly 600 employees.

At the beginning of July, Mapei completed another acquisition, this time in the Netherlands. The target was Eurovite, a company specialized in the production of adhesives and complementary products for the construction sector, based in Ede. In that case too, the goal was to strengthen the industrial presence in the Netherlands, with local production capable of ensuring closer proximity to the market and supporting growth in a rapidly developing area. “We want to enhance our local production capacity and further develop the offering for the market,” concludes Marco Squinzi, Mapei CEO. The company has been present in the Netherlands since 2009 with a logistics and commercial office in Apeldoorn, employs over 40 people, and reached a turnover of 13.5 million euros in 2025. Two other group companies are also active in the country: Sopro and Polyglass.
The multinational of the Squinzi family closed 2025 with consolidated revenues of over 4.4 billion euros, up 1.4% compared to the previous year. The group is present in 59 countries with a network of 92 companies and over 14,000 employees.
