Laminam, especialista en piezas de gran formato, ha adquirido la participación mayoritaria en Iberstone, compañía liderada por la familia Zapatero. Esta adquisición representa «un paso más en el camino de crecimiento y internacionalización» del fabricante.

En continuidad con la gestión anterior, los nueve centros logísticos de Iberstone, todo su personal y todos los activos comerciales han sido transferidos a la nueva empresa Iberstone Lam, de la que Laminam es el principal accionista y la familia Zapatero posee «una participación significativa». La nueva estructura empresarial «garantizará así la continuidad en la dinámica comercial, con José Luis Zapatero y su hijo Rubén Zapatero continuando como directores de la empresa», apuntan desde Laminam.

Laminam has purchased the controlling stake in Iberstone from the Zapatero family. The new acquisition of the main player in Spain for the distribution of large-format Laminam slabs and natural stone for kitchens and interiors, and the operation thus represents a further step in the manufacturer’s growth and internationalization path.

In continuity with the previous management, Iberstone’s nine logistics centers , all its personnel, and all commercial assets have been transferred into the newly formed Iberstone Lam, of which Laminam is the main shareholder and the Zapatero family has a significant holding.

The new company structure will therefore ensure continuity in the commercial dynamics, with José Luis Zapatero and his son Rubén Zapatero continuing as company directors.

The current nine logistics centers (Barcelona, Valencia, Madrid, Majorca, Zaragoza, Valladolid, Basque Country, Asturias, Gran Canaria), plus the distribution network, provide total coverage and guarantee fast, accurate and timely delivery of slabs to over 1000 fabricators.

The consolidated experience of the Zapatero family and Laminam’s investment capacity will allow further development of the market potential and ambitious new goals to be set.

The recognizability of the Laminam brand has allowed the Italian company to win ever-greater market share over the years. Thanks to its successful partnership with the Zapatero family, Laminam has built a strong presence in a market of strategic importance.

The new agreement is testament to Laminam’s international growth path: the new company will, indeed, join the other twelve foreign subsidiaries which cover the most important foreign markets.

“Our acquisition of Iberstone is the natural evolution of a profitable and professional partnership and friendship, based on reciprocal trust and esteem, which has seen both companies grow and establish themselves,” said Alberto Selmi, CEO of Laminam. “This operation not only allows us to strengthen our presence in a strategically important market, but also to combine our expertise with a team which shares our values and our vision”.

JL Zapatero: “For the Zapatero family this is a major step forward, thanks to the great trust and friendship which characterize our links to the management team. Joining a global brand like Laminam will have a positive impact on the Spanish market and promises a great future in our sector, combining the high quality of our product with the experience we have gained over all these years.”
