Valcan has entered an exciting new phase following the successful completion of a management buyout led by Managing Director Alan Lamming.
The transaction establishes a clear foundation for the future of the business, creates a platform for continued investment, growth and innovation while maintaining the customer-focused approach that has been central to Valcan’s success.
For customers, suppliers and partners, it remains business as usual, with the same products, services and commitment to delivering high levels of support.
Strengthening Our Leadership Team
The business is led by Managing Director Alan Lamming, alongside Gavin Besley, Commercial Director, and a new Finance Director, whose appointment will be announced shortly.
Investing in Our People
People have always been at the heart of Valcan’s success, and investment in our team remains a key priority.
Throughout 2026, we have continued to expand our internal sales support function, strengthening our ability to provide customers with the responsive service, technical support and project assistance they expect from Valcan.
As the business continues to grow, investment in talent will remain an important priority, ensuring we have the expertise needed to support our customers and partners.
Investing in Innovation and Technical Excellence
Alongside investment in our people, we are continuing to strengthen our focus on research, development and testing. Recent achievements, including CCPI assessment of both Valcan as an organisation and its
VitraDual® and Ceramapanel® product ranges, reflect our ongoing commitment to transparency, technical excellence and trusted product information.
The façade sector continues to evolve, and our commitment to technical excellence remains central to everything we do. By investing in product development, testing programmes and continuous improvement initiatives, we are ensuring that Valcan remains well-positioned to meet the changing needs of the market.
This ongoing investment reflects our commitment to delivering high-quality solutions while maintaining the standards of safety, performance and compliance our customers expect.
Building for the Future
While recent years have brought challenges across the construction industry, they have also created opportunities for businesses willing to adapt, invest and look ahead.
At Valcan, we are focused on creating a stronger future for the business through strategic investment, team development and a clear commitment to continuous improvement.
The investments being made today are only the beginning. With further initiatives planned across the business, Valcan remains focused on strengthening customer relationships, enhancing internal capabilities and creating a business that is well-positioned for future growth.
Alan Lamming, Managing Director, commented:
“Completing the management buyout marks an important milestone for Valcan and creates a strong platform for future growth. We are investing in our people, our capabilities and our products, with a clear focus on supporting our customers and strengthening the business for the long term.
This is an exciting time for Valcan. We have a talented team, ambitious plans and a clear vision for the future. The investments we are making today will help us build on our strengths, create new opportunities and continue delivering value to our customers and partners.
